LAS VEGAS, Nevada — On Friday, Tax March announced a new television ad campaign to educate Nevadans about the new Washington tax law that gives the wealthiest Americans a raise at the expense of the middle class.
The new six-figure ad buy, airing in Las Vegas, follows voters as they research the effects of the new law and reveals that the legislation was written to benefit millionaires, billionaires, and wealthy corporations. While millions of middle-class families pay higher taxes, 83 percent of the tax benefits go to the wealthiest 1 percent.
“Nevadans deserve to know that this tax law was not written to help them. Instead, the law lines the pockets of the wealthiest Americans while adding $1.9 trillion to the national debt, threatening Medicare and Social Security, and putting the financial security of the middle-class at risk,” said Nicole Gill, Executive Director of Tax March. “Politicians who voted for the tax bill gave their wealthy donors a huge raise at the expense of working families from coast to coast.”
