Tax Justice: A Christian Response to a Second Gilded Age

This is a theologically-based proposal to make our tax system more progressive and able to raise adequate funds.  Using a covenant framework and 5 Christian principles, Tax Justice addresses both personal and corporate taxes under 11 headings, countering the “race to the bottom” of tax competition domestically and internationally, notably through tax havens.  The report recommends capping several key tax expenditures and raising some taxes, including “carbon” taxes.
