No matter what we look like or where we come from, most Marylanders believe in caring for our families and leaving things better for the generations to come. However, the upside-down tax system we have today makes it harder for our communities to thrive.
In this episode, Kevin Slayton talks with Christopher Meyer of the Maryland Center on Economic Policy about the Roadmap for Tax Justice, a proposal to reform Maryland's tax system so that large, profitable corporations and the wealthy pay what they truly owe while also expanding opportunity by creating robust working family tax credits that help families make ends meet.
Then, Kevin heads to Annapolis to speak with Delegates Jheanelle Wilkins and Julie Palakovich Carr - two legislators who have been working to advance legislation that makes our tax system more equitable.
