Fair Share Maryland @fairsharemd.bsky.social · 04/04/2025
Big corporations shouldn't be able to hide their profits to avoid paying state taxes. We lose out on millions of dollars every single year without combine reporting. The House passed a budget that includes combined reporting, but the Senate rejected this crucial provision.

We’re facing a massive budget shortfall, but that doesn’t mean we have to cut crucial programs and services for Marylanders. It’s simple: we can ensure that the ultra-wealthy and corporations pay their fair share. Tell your legislators to pass the Fair Share for Maryland Act: bit.ly/payfairshare

Many states are pushing harmful tax cuts that would mostly help the rich. But some – especially MD, CT, MA, and WA - are instead asking more from the wealthy. Asking the well-off to contribute more is a must for creating a fair and equitable state tax system. itep.org/wide-ranging...

For my Maryland friends. This is an effort to make our tax system more progressive - it's very regressive now. We need Marylanders to contact their state legislators about this.

It's no surprise to us that most Marylanders want the ultra-wealthy to pay their fair share in taxes to support the essential services we all rely on. We've been having these conversations with people across Maryland for years. www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

If you’re reading this, you paid more for your Netflix subscription than Netflix paid in taxes in 2018, despite making over $800 million that year. This is the corporate tax handout Trump is trying to repeat. Netflix just raised its prices again, btw.

The Fair Share for Maryland Act of 2025 legislation helps address the state's budget crisis by closing corporate tax loopholes and ensuring the wealthiest Marylanders are paying their fair share in taxes. It also provides tax breaks for working families by expanding tax credits.
