Support the Buffett rule; millionaires pay higher taxes
I support the Buffett rule, which would ensure that those making a million dollars or more per year do not pay a lower tax rate than middle class families. Today the wealthy are paying the lowest tax rates in 50 years, which is why the
Bush tax cuts for high wage earners needs to expire. I will fight to eliminate the unfair loophole that allows hedge fund managers to pay a lower tax rate on their income than other professions.
