Yes on 1 For a Fairer Massachusetts (@fairsharema) 's Twitter Profile Photo

Only the richest make over $1M in taxable income in a single year. Only the priciest 1% of mansions and vacation homes would be affected by Question 1. Only the richest pay—not the rest of us. And it's only the richest billionaires + their lobbyists who are lying about that.

Do you make $500 an hour or $20,000 a week or $1 million a year? If you're part of the 99% of us who don't make that much, your taxes stay exactly the same with Question 1. Only millionaires pay more.

✅ Question 1 raises $2B a year for public education, roads and bridges. ✅ It will not impact 99 percent of home sales. ✅ It holds politicians accountable. Vote YES on Question 1 so all of our families can thrive.

It's our LAST TV AD. We have one week left to pass Question 1. It's all hands on deck. Billionaires tried to scare us into backing down. But educators, parents, students, roads workers, business owners, public transit riders, and drivers are together to vote Yes on 1.

The @bostonglobe is Yes on 1. “A yes vote would move Massachusetts a step away from the unfair income tax system created in 1915 and toward a fairer Commonwealth that’s capable of making the investments it needs.” bostonglobe.com/2022/11/01/opi…

Bridges are deteriorating, roads are literally crumbling underfoot, students are struggling, schools are scraping by with too little, graduates are staggering under decades of debt, and millionaires aren't paying their fair share in taxes. What can you do about it?

Reminder! Use this handy tool to see if you'd pay a single cent more in taxes when we pass Question 1. You might already know the spoiler: unless you're a millionaire, you won't.

Thanksgiving has come and gone, now tens of thousands of public employees will enter December not knowing how they will provide for their families throughout surges in home heating costs and the stress of the holidays. The legislature needs to fund their contracts today! #mapoli
