Our member @abigaildisney has a message for leaders at @wef in Davos: Extreme wealth threatens global stability and our shared future.

That’s why Abby and nearly 400 millionaires from around the world signed our open letter calling on leaders to tax the super rich.

[Patriotic Millionaires @PatrioticMills]

Ahead of the G20 summit in South Africa this weekend, our very own @abigaildisney penned an op-ed for @TIME making the case for why G20 leaders need to tax ultra-wealthy people like her to create more equal nations and a healthier planet.

Private planes make up nearly 12% of all flights.

And yet even with major air traffic control safety concerns, the DOT is planning to exclude them from its plan to order 10% cut in flights.

People who can afford to charter flights will be fine. Everyone else is screwed.

A six-year legal battle between @Disney and its workers ends with a massive payout.

A California judge's approval of a $233 million settlement marks the final, official repudiation of Disney’s tactics in skirting a 2018 wage law known as #MeasureL.

"Death & Taxes" takes a highly personal approach to addressing inequality in America—the relationship between a father and a son.

Abigail Disney has been one of the world's leading advocates for a #wealthtax for years.

Her argument is simple: The system is rigged for the rich. A tax on extreme wealth is the only fair way to fix it.

It's not a radical idea. It's a just one. #TaxTheRich

NEW: CEO pay has grown from 42x the average worker’s pay in 1980 to an outrageous 538x today, IPS @inequalityorg researchers found. Wealth isn't trickling down.

There's a clear solution, says heiress @abigaildisney in @newrepublic: Tax people like her. https://t.co/9uveq44GVq

[Patriotic Millionaires @PatrioticMills]

While working families are living paycheck to paycheck, billionaires are renting out whole cities to throw lavish weddings.

There's extreme wealth, and then there's THIS.

And the worst part is that our tax code rewards it. https://t.co/aIdRJfYFQ8

[Patriotic Millionaires @PatrioticMills]

A tax code is a communal expression of social priorities—not a set of rules to be gamed.

A tax code is a statement of moral principles.

Taxes got us into this mess, and taxes are the only way out: https://t.co/73tZa34WRb

ICYMI, here is a recording of the @newrepublic panel featuring @abigaildisney, @Author_Noah001, and @JoeConason.

[The New Republic @newrepublic]

Privilege isn’t the problem in and of itself; it’s only positional. The problem is extreme wealth, inherited or earned, curdles quickly into entitlement.

And when entitlement is widely distributed among the very powerful, it becomes everybody’s problem.

tl;dr: Rich people will win from Trump's "big, beautiful" bill. Everyone else will lose.

Philanthropist Abigail Disney urged donors and the leaders of major foundations and nonprofits to be braver with their giving in the face of funding freezes and cuts by the Trump administration and said when people act courageously, it encourages others to do the same.
