Today, Elon Musk became the world’s first trillionaire, but it was never inevitable. Nabil Ahmed, Oxfam’s Senior Director of Economic Justice, shares how an era of regressive policy choices paved the way to this frightening time, while people worldwide are struggling to get by.️

100%, it's time to tax the ultra-wealthy and invest in our communities.

If Jeff Bezos dropped a $20 bill while walking the #MetGala red carpet, he may as well leave it... One way we push back on this extreme inequality: properly #TaxTheRich so we can invest in public goods and programs that benefit everyone.

This weekend’s escalation in the Middle East is a reckless breach of international law with consequences far beyond the region. The US and Israel’s attacks on Iran undermine the rules‑based order, and the silence of many Western leaders at this moment is deeply alarming.

The wealth of the 10 richest Americans surged $698B in the past year. Trump’s tax handouts to billionaires and cuts to health care will only make inequality worse. We need an economy that works for everyone – not one that works for the 1% and hangs everyone else out to dry.

When the Trump admin slashed humanitarian aid programs, it claimed broad support from the American people. We investigated this claim & what we learned was clear: The American public rejects Trump’s extreme cuts to lifesaving & development aid. politicsofpoverty.oxfamamerica.org/aid-funding-...

Oxfam is travelling around the U.S. on a tax the ultra-rich yacht tour, calling on policymakers to prioritize ordinary people and families over billionaire tax cuts. It's inspiring to see people from all over the country join together to hold the powerful accountable.

SCOTUS just weakened one of our most important environmental laws. For nearly 50 years, the National Environmental Policy Act has protected people & the planet. This ruling gives federal agencies a free pass to ignore their responsibility to analyze the foreseeable enviro harm of major projects.

We will continue standing up for the principle that the government must consider predictable environmental harms before it acts.

On #TaxDay, we kicked off our tax the ultra-rich yacht tour in Augusta, Maine to call on policymakers to fix our broken tax system and protect vital programs like Medicaid and SNAP. Fight inequality, tax the ultra-rich.

The Trump-Musk administration is pushing for tax plans that could save the top 1% even more money while ordinary people are being left to foot the bill. Today we stood together in Maine to fight inequality and tell Congress people are not on board with tax giveaways to the ultra-wealthy.

Teachers and nurses and working families across the U.S. deserve better. Now, President Trump's tax plans could save the 1% even more money, while taking money out of the pockets of ordinary people.

Billionaires like Musk have a clear reason to undermine the #IRS: they know that investing in tax authorities means the very richest would finally be forced to pay their fair share. This is a perverse display of #billionaire self-dealing at the expense of ordinary people.

Breaking: Oxfam America is joining the lawsuit to block the Trump administration's assault on humanitarian aid. The attack on foreign assistance and USAID is an illegal and unconstitutional action that exacerbates existing humanitarian crises and will have life or death consequences for millions.

The Trump Administration wants to undo generations of progress in addressing racial discrimination against Black people. No matter what, we will always fight for a version of “We the People” that includes everyone.

The world’s richest person, without any actual authority, is infiltrating entire govt agencies and gaining access to sensitive info. And it's being done in an effort to slash federal spending in the name of "efficiency" so America’s wealthy can get another huge tax cut.

As the Trump admin moves to undercut USAID and effective foreign assistance, Oxfam will continue to fight to deliver lifesaving aid and long-term assistance to those who need it most. Read more: www.oxfamamerica.org/press/disman...
Oxfam America's President Abby Maxman said: "Dismantling The U.S. Agency for International Development could have deadly consequences for millions of people living in dire humanitarian emergencies and extreme poverty. This callous political power play is legally dubious. Congress must take a stand."

Reminder: Foreign aid is a tiny part of the US federal budget with a huge impact. By investing in essential programs that provide food, healthcare, education, economic development, and disaster relief, we save lives, support marginalized communities, and promote global stability.

This is what the extreme inequality crisis looks like. Yesterday's inauguration of President Trump made it clearer than ever that he will be a president of and for billionaires.
