A Closer Look: Join us at “HOW TO WIN, Tax the Rich, and Save the World.”
After teasing you a bit last week about our 2026 Spring Symposium, “HOW WE WIN, Tax the Rich, and Save the World,” we’re thrilled to officially bring you into the fold and invite you to join us virtually for what we think will be one of the best events of the year. In just five days, you’ll be able to stream an event unlike any other.
It’s the beginning of a new month, and that means we’re seeing new reports about the job numbers from March 2026. The headlines say that unemployment dropped from 4.4% in February to 4.3% in March. That is good and welcomed news. But, it is not the full story and I want to explain a bit more about what is behind that number.
Seeing how today is also April Fools’ Day, we thought we’d have a little fun with the holiday—with a Patriotic Millionaires’ twist, of course. Unlike most, we aren’t spending the day cooking up elaborate pranks to play on our loved ones or coworkers. Instead, we created a list of our top five “April Tax Fools.”
A Closer Look: Demystifying the Working Americans’ Tax Cut Act
My name is Holli Woodings, and I’m the Vice President of Government Affairs here at Patriotic Millionaires where I oversee our legislative, policy, and political work. Previously I’ve served as the President of Boise City Council, as a State Representative in the Idaho Legislature, and as a Senior Fellow at the National Institute for Civil Discourse here in Washington, DC.
Heard About Buy-Borrow-Die? Meet Buy-Hold for Decades-Sell
Billionaire investment gains that don’t escape tax entirely end up taxed far more lightly than most Americans realize. A ‘Billionaires Income Tax’ could fix that.
As I’m sure you’ve seen, the debt ceiling is in the news again as President Elon Musk and VP Donald Trump try to figure out how to lead the incoming kakistocracy. We thought it would be helpful to explain the issue and the negotiations around it, if you’re looking for some light reading as you finish up your holiday shopping.
Today, the Patriotic Millionaires joined forces with the Revolving Door Project to launch a grassroots letter campaign – housed at FreeCharlesLittlejohn.com – to urge President Biden to commute the prison sentence of Charles Littlejohn. For this week’s Closer Look, I want to tell you about Charles Littlejohn, make my case as to why he deserves clemency from the president, and do my best to encourage you to join our cause.
They say you can judge a person by the company they keep. Donald Trump, surrounded by his cadre of old and new billionaire friends, is the epitome of this truth.
Oops! A Rich-People-Friendly Think Tank Confirms Our Richest Pay Under 1 Percent of Their Wealth Annually in Tax
A new Tax Foundation analysis also inadvertently shines a light on the uselessness of ‘adjusted gross income’ as an indicator of actual billionaire economic income.
A self-avowed authoritarian successfully wielded the economic frustrations of millions to win the most consequential election of our nation’s history. The Democratic establishment has only itself to blame. Voters demanded a fundamental overhaul of a rigged economic system. When neo-liberal Democrats dithered, Donald Trump offered to clear the board, and voters chose the dark unknown rather than the status quo.
In the final feverish stretch of the election, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed with policy announcements, endless fundraising texts, and news cycles that seem to last only minutes. If you’re feeling exhausted, we get it – we’re right there with you.
Why Is Elon Musk Supporting Donald Trump? Tax Avoidance!
Elon Musk, The New York Times reports, has gone all in for Donald Trump. His pro-Trump America PAC, has already spent $118 million and has the budget to spend tens of millions more, almost all of that coming from Musk himself.
It’s hard to believe that we are just 12 days away from Election Day. The Patriotic Millionaires have never minced words, and we’re not going to start now: the stakes are extraordinarily high.
If you were a rich Wisconsinite striving to get even richer and you had little regard for intellectual honesty or the well-being of your fellow citizens, you would agree with Sen. Ron Johnson’s remarks at last month’s Senate Finance Committee hearing. Otherwise, you’d find the senator’s views troublesome, to say the least.
How Billionaires’ Political Spending Undermines Our Democracy
When they bankroll electoral candidates to the tune of millions, billionaires claim they are merely exercising their First Amendment right to free speech. And while the Supreme Court and current law might be on their side, their political “largesse” is a dangerous subversion of our democracy.
America is suffering from twin wage and tax crises, and today, the Patriotic Millionaires are excited to announce a bold, innovative solution we’ve worked on with our allies on the Hill! Today, with support from our organization and a number of cosponsors, Representative Summer Lee (PA-12) has introduced the American Stability Act.
