ATLANTA, GA\u00a0<\/strong>\u2014 Today,\u00a0United Food and Commercial Workers Local 1996<\/strong><\/a>, the\u00a0union for 20,000 Georgia essential workers<\/strong>, held a press conference with\u00a0Congresswoman Nikema Williams\u00a0<\/strong>(GA-05) and\u00a0Invest in America<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0to call for Congress to pass\u00a0President Biden\u2019s American Jobs and Families Plans<\/strong>\u00a0to help\u00a0create millions of good-paying jobs<\/strong>\u00a0for working families in Georgia and across the country.\u00a0Click here to watch full video<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

As White House and Congressional negotiations continue<\/strong>, today\u2019s\u00a0UFCW 1996 press conference<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0called for action on the infrastructure passage and paying for it by making those earning over $400,000 and big corporations pay their fair share.\u00a0Congresswoman Williams<\/strong>\u00a0highlighted how some\u00a0Republican lawmakers<\/strong>\u00a0want to impose a gas tax on middle class families<\/strong>\u00a0and raid state and local funding meant for essential workers as part of their infrastructure plans.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Congresswoman Nikema Williams (GA-05): <\/strong>\u201cPassing the American Jobs and Families Plans is what we need right now, and we are not going to pay for it on the backs of hard working families who are already doing their fair share. What we need to make sure we\u2019re doing right now is ensuring that companies are paying their fair share as well. No matter what someone else tells you, no one making less than $400,000 will have to pay any increase in taxes to make sure that we have a robust infrastructure plan that is truly bold and visionary. The middle class needs to be at the center of an inclusive economic recovery. Now is not the time to take our foot off the gas, and we can\u2019t afford to leave anyone behind.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

In new polling from Invest in America<\/strong><\/a>, 56 percent of voters support increasing the corporate tax rate to fund infrastructure investments<\/strong> and oppose raiding American Rescue Plan funds by a 24 point margin.Additionally, 79 percent of voters<\/strong><\/a>, i<\/strong>ncluding 78 percent of Independents <\/strong>and 59 percent of Republicans, support raising corporate taxes to fund infrastructure <\/strong>investments.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

David Tony Adams, UFCW member and Pilgrim\u2019s Pride Meatpacking Worker in Athens, GA: <\/strong>\u201cAt the meatpacking plant where I work, many people make less than $15 an hour, yet they still pay their fair share in taxes. These are hard working Georgians struggling to pay for child care, for school costs, and their commute back and forth to work. It was already tough enough to make ends meet, and the pandemic made it harder. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

\u201cFor the rich not to pay as many taxes as the average worker is upsetting. While the wealthy have generational wealth, as a plant worker, I have to save $3,000 a month to have enough money for retirement. Any tax break for the average American like myself makes a world of a difference for me and for my family. We need to invest in infrastructure in our communities now.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Tiosha Adams, UFCW member and Kroger Grocery Worker in Atlanta, GA: <\/strong>\u201cAs an essential worker, it\u2019s infuriating that we have 25 of the richest Americans not paying their fair share of taxes. Using American Rescue Plan funds to pay for infrastructure is the same thing as robbing Peter to pay Paul. That money is supposed to keep our schools open and make sure working people recover from the pandemic. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

\u201cMy family can\u2019t afford to not have schools open next year. We need to protect the American Rescue Plan money for its original purpose of getting our kids back in classrooms and supporting our essential workers. Congress needs to step up and invest in our roads and infrastructure. In order to build Georgia back better and invest in our communities, we need the wealthy to pay their fair share in taxes.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

BACKGROUND<\/u><\/strong>:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

In new polling from Invest in America<\/strong><\/a>, 56 percent of voters support increasing the corporate tax rate to fund infrastructure investments<\/strong> and oppose raiding American Rescue Plan funds by a 24 point margin.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Additionally, 65 percent of voters<\/strong><\/a>,<\/strong>\u00a0including\u00a068 percent of Independents\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a076 percent of Republicans,\u00a0oppose<\/u><\/strong>\u00a0user-fees like tolls or a miles-per-traveled tax to fund infrastructure investments.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

And a stunning 79 percent of voters<\/strong><\/a>, i<\/strong>ncluding 78 percent of Independents <\/strong>and 59 percent of Republicans, support raising corporate taxes to fund infrastructure <\/strong>investments.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Today\u2019s event urged Congress to reject any infrastructure proposal that shifts the tax burden onto middle class Americans<\/strong> through user-fees like tolls and a miles-per-traveled tax, raiding state and local American Rescue Plan funding originally meant for essential workers, or a gas tax. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

While the American Rescue Plan helped staunch the bleeding after a devastating year<\/strong> by allowing state and local governments to make ends meet and keep essential workers like firefighters, EMTs, and teachers on the job, the country needs more public investment to truly recover<\/strong>. Featured speakers will make clear that any proposal that burdens middle class Americans with the infrastructure tab will hinder the nation\u2019s overall economic recovery. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
