The National Park Service ran on a $3 billion budget and generated $56 billion in economic output in 2024. That’s over $17 back for every $1 invested.

Ken Griffin (via his hedge fund Citadel Advisors) is one of the largest creditors and now a major equity owner in Spirit Airlines.

Citigroup
CVS
Kohl's
Ticketmaster
Tesla
United Airlines
GoDaddy
Paypal
Palantir
Roku
HP
3M
PG&E
Halliburton
That’s absurd. We need real and progressive tax reform.
