Tell your lawmaker to VOTE NO on constitutional amendments that limit our collective future!
Our public schools and our childcare system are in a world of hurt, and our public infrastructure is crumbling under the weight of underfunding.
It'll get worse if Senate Bill 630 passes the General Assembly and moves to the ballot in November.
The proposed constitutional amendment in that bill would lower the cap on income tax rates to 5 percent. This would make it impossible for future lawmakers to pass tax policy that demands the wealthiest few and profitable corporations pay what they owe through taxes, causing ripple effects on local revenue.
Revenue that provides adequately for our public schools, childcare system, and all public institutions benefits our families and our local businesses.
Now is a critical time to make your voice heard.
North Carolina's low income tax rates already benefit the wealthiest households and profitable corporations, preventing us from keeping up with the needs of our growing state.
Lawmakers should pursue tax policies that ensure people and communities have what they need to get a good education, a good job and the care their families need – not unnecessary and costly amendments that will harm our state.
Lift up your voice on this important matter and join with us in demanding our elected leaders focus on the people's priorities.
Contact your elected leaders in the Senate and House to urge them to vote NO on Senate Bill 630.
