WATCH OUR 2025 EXPERT TOWN HALL: HOW TO BEAT THE BROLIGARCHS

America has descended into an oligarchy. We're here to fight back and to demand better—not just for our own lives, but for the future of our country. Relive our 2025 Expert Town Hall with our experts as we unpacked how we got here and what we can do to wrest control from them.

Our Priorities

Inequality in America hasn’t been this high since the Gilded Age, when robber barons like Andrew Carnegie and John D. Rockefeller wielded massive wealth and influence. It’s now so extreme that it threatens the stability of our economy and our democracy.

But all hope is not lost. The good news is that the solutions to the problem are not complicated, and the Patriotic Millionaires have them all.

Tax the Rich

Wealthy Americans like us have rigged the tax code to give ourselves countless handouts, leaving working people paying higher rates than billionaires. We need to build a tax system that puts a check on the extreme inequality that threatens our economy and our democracy.

Pay the People

America is the richest country in the world, but tens of millions of workers still don’t make enough money to survive. We need to pay workers fairly in order to stabilize our economy, unlock new levels of growth, and ensure widely shared prosperity.

Spread the Power

In America today, lawmakers represent the interests and preferences of their donors and not their average constituents. We need to get big money out of politics and safeguard the right to vote to ensure everyone has their voice heard.

We have a responsibility to ensure that our planet is healthy and habitable for future generations. In my case as a person of wealth, I can only fulfill this responsibility if lawmakers strengthen their resolve to tax me more.”

It’s just basic business sense to recognize that workers are human beings, not disposable and replaceable cogs in a machine. When people are paid enough to feel a basic level of economic security, they will be stronger and more productive workers.”

‘Oppressive’ Taxation That Isn’t

‘Oppressive’ Taxation That Isn’t

The nightmare scenarios anti-tax groups paint ignore the huge impact of ‘buy-hold for decades-sell’ tax avoidance on the taxes our ultra-rich end up paying.

Happy Tax Day, America! Tax the Rich.

Happy Tax Day, America! Tax the Rich.

Here at the Patriotic Millionaires, Tax Day serves as a yearly reminder that the ultra-wealthy can bypass many of the frustrating hurdles in our tax code at the expense of working people— and that it’s on us to continually call on lawmakers to raise our taxes. But now more than ever, we need Congress to act urgently, as we are facing an inequality crisis so extreme that it threatens the essence of our democracy.
