OUR WORK

The economy is rigged in favor of the rich and against working people. Everybody knows it. It’s time to do something about it.

Want a great country? Start with a great economy.

Members of Patriotic Millionaires have incomes over $1 million annually and/or assets of over $5 million. They are business leaders, philanthropists and investors who believe the economy is rigged in favor of the rich and against working people and who believe this is bad for everyone, including rich people. As our board chair likes to say, “I’m not any more altruistic than the next guy, I’m just greedy for a different kind of country.

Patriotic Millionaires members want to live in a rich, stable and free country and they work together to advance the kind of economy that can support it that vision.

The group first came together in 2010 to protest President Obama’s decision to extend the Bush tax cuts for income over $1 million. They focus their advocacy toward raising taxes on multi-national corporations and individuals with incomes over $1 million or assets of more than $5 million.

A small, Southern town. A few rogue millionaires.
And the race to save America from itself.

Join the Patriotic Millionaires

Are you a high-net-worth individual who’s tired of watching America drift toward instability, inequality, and oligarchy? Do you believe that a fair economy and a thriving democracy are worth fighting for? 

You’re not alone. We do too.

Welcome to Patriotic Millionaires, a powerful group of business leaders, investors, and philanthropists who use their public and private influence to advance a stable, prosperous, and better America. We fight for:

  • A fair tax code
  • Livable wages for working people, and
  • Big money out of politics

A stable, rich country benefits everyone, even rich people. As Board Chair Morris Pearl says,

I’m not more altruistic than the next guy.
I’m just greedy for a different kind of country.

MORRIS PEARL, Patriotic Millionaires Board Chair

If you believe:

  • Millionaires and billionaires should pay higher taxes.
  • No one working full-time should live in poverty.
  • Democracy belongs to all Americans, not just a few.

You’re in the right place. 

As America nears its 250th birthday, the stakes couldn’t be higher, and the fight couldn’t be clearer. America has a problem, and the MONEY Agenda is our solution. With the MONEY Agenda as our roadmap, together, we can secure the next era of American prosperity by stabilizing working families, rewriting rigged economic rules, and breaking the grip of oligarchy once and for all.

We are 100% member-funded. 100% values-driven. And 100% ready to fight for the soul of our country. Are you? Reach out to gabby@patrioticmillionaires.org for more information and join the Patriotic Millionaires today.
