Federal employee groups are encouraging fast action from the General Services Administration to quickly update tax regulations and write new guidance on tax deductible moving and travel expenses.Individual mandate repeal packaged in the tax scam just jacked up everybody's health care costs.
Spread the word.
"President Trump's former top health official on Tuesday said the Republican tax law would raise the cost of health insurance for some Americans because it repealed a core provision of the Affordable Care Act.
...
'There are many, and I’m one of them, who believes that that actually will harm the pool in the exchange market, because you’ll likely have individuals who are younger and healthier not participating in that market, and consequently that drives up the cost for other folks within that market,' Price said at the World Health Care Conference in Washington."

""Old habits run deep," says Chris Rupkey, chief financial economist at MUGF, a financial services firm with offices in New York. "I would be surprised if much of the corporate tax cut money ends up in workers' pockets."
The reason? Companies, Rupkey says, are reluctant to increase their permanent wage costs. He also argues that "everyone has a boss," and that companies are "managing up" by paying out their increased after-tax profits to stockholders."

Trump’s tax cuts didn’t benefit American workers, just made rich companies richer

Since the tax cuts, companies spent 37 times as much on stock buybacks than they did on bonuses and increased wages for workers.Check out the freebies we’ll have tomorrow morning courtesy of our national team, Tax March!

#REPEALTHETRUMPTAX:
THE PERFECT FISCAL STORM.
GOP Rep Mark Walker (R-N.C.), who chairs the conservative Republican Study Committee caucus, said the GOP looked “hypocritical” and “disingenuous.” And the latest damage to the nation’s fiscal health has been done with GOP in charge at both ends of Pennsylvania Avenue.

And that was just in airfare.Good Monday morning, friends! We hope you had a great weekend!
We wanted to provide you with a little update on our event planning!:
Last Tuesday, a friend of Tax March Houston kindly dropped off our payment for the permit request at the Mayor’s Office, while we submitted the permit request from afar. We’ve officially requested Emancipation Park, and we’d be incredibly honored to get the ok to host there! We’ll let y’all know the moment we get our permit request approved.
We’ve got something we’d love you to weigh in on, though:
As you may know, last year we began and ended our march segment at the same points (City Hall, unavailable this year). We have that same opportunity again, starting and ending at historic Emancipation Park, OR, we can begin at Elizabeth Baldwin Park and march across 59 (where we’d love to hold up some huge banners for passersby to see!) to end in Emancipation Park for the keynote portion of the event.
As attendees, we’d love your input. Especially if you’re hoping to table at this event for a candidate or cause, we’d love to know your thoughts on this. (Also, if you plan to table, please contact us!)
All input is appreciated! And, of course, all financial help will help us get the jump on our planning! Keep an eye out for t-shirts THIS WEEK, too!
We’re here at the #TrumpTax Town Hall! Tune in live to follow along with our panelists!
The trump Whitehouse is the epitome of arrogant flouting of the rules. Without accountability and transparency in our elected officials, we have nothing.
Join us in the streets for Tax March 2, where we’ll stand by this original rallying cry of accountability and transparency, along with so much more! Help us get our permitting started by donating here:

Trump Thought the Rules Didn’t Apply—and Now He’s Paying the Price

The Trump administration decided early on that many guidelines were either antiquated or punitive, and is belatedly discovering that they were there for its own protection.Wealth inequality will only continue to grow under the #TaxScam. We MUST fight back!

The richest 1% took home 82% of the wealth generated around the globe last year.
Oxfam says Donald Trump and his "cabinet of billionaires" are partly to blame for the growing inequality.
"He also attributed the less-than-desired allocation to the Trump administration’s focus on tax reform and officials being “sensitive about adding to the federal debt” at the time."
Here's the translation:
Texans who lost their whole lives won't get the help they need because 45 & Congress needed a political victory so they could convince the wealthy criminal class to keep them in power.
GOP #taxreform is theft.
