@Manners_ST@chamath The billionaire tax CANNOT be expanded to include home equity, savings, or retirement accounts. This is a lie being spread by a handful of billionaires because they don't want to pay their fair share to save your healthcare
@YouknowTheguy3@chamath The point of the Billionaire Tax Act is to enact a ONE-TIME 5% tax on BILLIONAIRES, and can only be amended in ways consistent with that purpose.
Making the tax permanent or expanding it to people who are not billionaires is not consistent with the purpose, so it's not possible.
@chamath IF ! you're going to spread blatant misinformation about a commonsense initiative to backfill devastating federal healthcare budget cuts, why aren't there any other viable solutions to stop hundreds of hospitals and ERs across the state from closing ?????????

@FreedomFdtn FALSE ! The billionaire tax CANNOT be expanded to include home equity, savings, or retirement accounts. This is a lie being spread by a handful of billionaires because they don't want to pay their fair share to save healthcare.
@FreedomFdtn QUESTION: if your going to spread blatant misinformation about a commonsense initiative to backfill devastating federal healthcare budget cuts, why aren't there any other viable solutions to stop hundreds of hospitals and ERs across the state from closing?
@FreedomFdtn THIS IS NOT TRUE. The legislature can only amend the Billionaire Tax Act if the statute is consistent with the purpose of the act, which is to put a ONE-TIME TAX on BILLIONAIRES.
If you're not a billionaire, you will not pay this tax .

These conservative Republicans refuse to support Trump because they believe he’s utterly unfit for office. Country over party. 🇺🇸🇺🇸
We will not be silenced . Patients & healthcare workers deserve better. 🇺🇸Congress is now aware of the union busting & intimidation tactics that take place . Corporate greed before patient care has got to end. 💪💙💪💜 this is just the beginning… @seiu_uhw
Demand @_PrimeHealth reinstate the 9 frontline healthcare workers illegally fired for speaking out about the staffing crisis @SFMC_Medical. We will never stop fighting for our patients and coworkers. Sign today! https://t.co/aGeXm3XjWP #Prime9#United4All
This holiday season, we are calling on @_PrimeHealth to increase staffing and improve patient and worker safety. This can only happen if Prime returns to the table and bargains in good faith. Share this post to spread the word! #United4All#SolidaritySeason
The seven employees terminated at @_PrimeHealth include the entire five-member SEIU-UHW bargaining team and come amid a seven-day strike of 1,800 healthcare workers. @premreddymd, stop retaliating against healthcare workers! #United4All#SolidaritySeason
I am deeply troubled by Prime Healthcare's recent termination of 7 dedicated frontline healthcare workers at St. Francis Medical Center, individuals who courageously spoke out about their working conditions, chronic understaffing, and compromised patient care.
Frontline workers at @_PrimeHealth are sounding the alarm about the staffing shortage in their facilities and bad faith bargaining. What’s executive Kavitha Bhatia’s response? She’s firing workers for bringing their concerns to her corporate headquarters. #United4All
