Tax reform debate spurs grass roots Tax Justice Act plan
A nationwide citizen coalition named the National Committee for Tax Justice unveils the Tax Justice Act of 1975 to repeal about 20 billion dollars in tax injustices and shift 13 billion to middle and lower income taxpayers. It targets corporate subsidies and calls for direct, annually appropriated credits rather than backdoor tax breaks. The campaign emphasizes mobilizing hundreds of thousands of Americans through groups like Ohio TEA to pressure Congress for fair taxation.
