Change the Rules So Large Corporations Pay Their Fair Share!
Big polluters like Chevron could soon be forced to pay their fair share of tax in upcoming budget announcements — and they’re fighting tooth and nail to stop this.
This broken system gives big polluters such generous tax deductions that no new revenue will be collected for decades to come. As a result, people like you and me are losing out on billions of dollars that could fund our schools, hospitals, and roads.
The Senate is running an inquiry into this tax right now. Submissions close in just a few days on 30th March. I added my voice, can you add yours too?

Saudis and China Dump Treasuries; Foreign Central Banks Liquidate A Record $346 Billion In US Paper
One month ago, when we last looked at the Fed’s update of Treasuries held in custody, we noted something troubling: the number dropped sharply, declining by over $27.5 billion in one week, the biggest weekly drop since January 2015, pushing the total amount of custodial paper to $2.83 trillion, the lowest since 2012. One month later, we refresh this chart and find that in the latest weekly update, foreign central banks continued their relentless liquidation of US paper held in the Fed’s custody account, which tumbled by another $22.3 billion in the past week, pushing the total amount of custodial paper to $2.805 trillion, another fresh post-2012 low.
