Stop Dynasties, Defend the Estate Tax.

Open Letter to GOP Senators


Dear Senator McConnell, Senator Thune, Senator Grassley, and Republican Members of the U.S. Senate,

We are writing to demand that you immediately shelve any and all plans to eliminate the federal estate tax.

The estate tax was introduced a century ago when economic inequality had reached such historic levels that it was considered a threat to national stability. We suffer the same imbalance today and our nation’s stability is similarly at risk.

The preservation of an estate tax should be a top priority for any patriotic American.

In a devious plot to deceive hard-working Americans, you and your colleagues insist on referring to the estate tax as a “death tax”. It should actually be considered a “dynasty tax” as it is specifically designed to prevent the rise of a permanent aristocracy.

This is America after all.

Thank you,
The Signers
