Don't forget to drop your questions in the Q&A function in Zoom!

A question, so much rhetoric from some individuals about people "not working" because of unemployment benefits and even backlash from the child tax credit. How do we push against these negative responses to family support? There is so little known in the public about how essential affordable, quality, and accessible early child care is to recovery from natural disasters. Its frustrating at times.

Indeed!

Our tax structure favors homeowners. Any ideas about how we can help people who rent their homes so that we can address housing affordability issues?

But the challenge is most "average" folks don't understand the complexities of tax code...

Thanks so much Danny

The challenge is they don't want to spend dollars on programs that will require funding beyond the 3 year funding period

Small Business Majority’s recent polling found that 85% of small business owners believe the tax code unfairly benefits large corporations over small businesses, a disparity that has undoubtedly been exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Can you discuss how the proposed changes to the taxation of capital gains (as mentioned in the the American Jobs Plan and American Families plan) will help to level the playing field for the smallest of businesses & impact GA’s economy?
