Sen. Nelson: This Tax Day, Stop the Corporate Tax Dodge

Corporate tax-dodgers cost us $150 billion in lost taxes every year. Close all the corporate tax loopholes that allow companies to shift profits offshore and make corporate tax-dodgers pay their fair share.

Why is this important?

Every year, some large corporations dodge billions in taxes while their friends in Congress do all they can to protect their loopholes. I don't know about you, but I'm tired of it.

Let's see if they can dodge this: As we near Tax Day, add your name to our petition and we will put it on a dodgeball and deliver it.

By hook or by crook and with considerable help from Congress, a few big corporations end up dodging more than $150 billion in taxes per year -- through offshore bank accounts, phony overseas subsidiaries, and tax breaks written into the law by special interest lobbyists.

You and I pay our fair share. Isn't it time for tax-dodging corporations to do the same? Especially when some members of Congress would rather protect these tax giveaways than invest in education, health care or making sure kids have enough to eat?

Right now Sen. Nelson is part of the Senate group coming up with the plan for corporate tax reform. We know they are being inundated by lobbyists from the big tax-dodging corporations. Help us send a message that they can't dodge their responsibility to the rest of us.
