2092888 NETWORK LOBBY FOR CATHOLIC SOCIAL JUSTICE 3f4b7672-0a0f-4f68-8c19-e39ea11b1be4 Q4 NETWORK LOBBY FOR CATHOLIC SOCIAL JUSTICE 63495 NETWORK 2017 fourth_quarter TAX NETWORK believes a strong and prosperous society requires everyone to contribute. Without taxes there would be no public education and health systems, safe communities, secure retirements, reliable transportation systems, breakthrough research for medical cures, clean renewable energy, and an economic security system to protect and boost struggling families. NETWORK believes the current federal tax system allows and encourages the wealthy and corporations to avoid paying their fair share of taxes and is fundamentally unjust. To create an economy that works for all, the wealthy and corporations should pay more in taxes than they pay now. NETWORK believes corporations derive enormous benefits from the public investments and protections that our tax dollars support and they have a responsibility to contribute. The tax incentives for multinational corporations to shift jobs and profits offshore to avoid taxation should be eliminated, which would level the playing field for small businesses and domestic corporations For decades, wealth and income have grown more and more concentrated in fewer and fewer hands. NETWORK opposes any tax plan that provides tax relief for wealthy individuals and further skews the economy and the tax code away from the vast majority of working people. NETWORK strongly opposes the Tax and Job Act. The bill is fiscally irresponsible, provides enormous new tax benefits to the wealthy and corporations, and fails to provide tax relief for low income working families and individuals. NETWORK supports expanding the Earned Income Tax Credit for younger low income workers and workers with grown children who are currently taxed into poverty. NETWORK supports expanding the Child Tax Credit by making the credit fully refundable and indexing the credit to make it more accessible for low income children. NETWORK supports reform of the Mortgage Interest Deduction. This tax incentive costs the federal government $70 billion a year and largely benefits the highest-income families.
