Tell your elected leaders that you support increasing taxes on the wealthiest Vermonters.
Congress and the President have taken our hard-earned tax dollars to give massive tax breaks to the wealthy and corporations, putting pressure on our state budgets for years to come. Tell your legislators that you support recapturing federal tax breaks for the wealthy to better meet Vermont’s needs.
Due to the passage of H.R. 1 (One Big 'Beautiful' Bill Act), the top 1% of Vermont income-earners are set to receive an average federal tax cut of $57,000 per filer in 2026. Meanwhile, too many Vermonters are struggling to make ends meet and are worried about the future, and reduced federal funding for programs Vermonters rely on is putting additional pressure on Vermont families. Now more than ever, it’s time for the wealthiest Vermonters to pay their fair share of taxes.
This Legislative Session, it’s important to let your elected leaders know that you support increasing taxes on the wealthiest Vermonters to raise state revenue, including through H. 619, which would increase taxes on Vermonters making over $1 million per year and H. 621, which would increase taxes on Vermonters making over $500,000 per year.
More state revenue means more resources to respond to federal funding cuts and to invest in our communities–to fix our roads and bridges, support Vermont families, increase access to healthcare and housing, protect our environment, and more–helping to make a Vermont that’s affordable for everyone, not just the wealthy few.
