- Progressives push higher taxes on wealthy Americans as states weigh flight risk

- Date posted
- 3 months ago
- Description
- Wealthy Americans in several states could soon face higher taxes as progressive leaders push new revenue measures aimed at high earners, even as officials weigh concerns that some residents could move to lower-tax states.
In California, the state Democratic Party has officially endorsed a “billionaire’s tax” initiative that would go before voters. The proposal would impose a one-time 5% fee on about 200 billionaires in the state if it passes. California Gov. Gavin Newsom has opposed the state-level approach, warning it could drive wealthy taxpayers to relocate.
“You would have a windfall one time, and then over the years you would see a significant reduction in taxes because taxpayers will move. And that is what I fear at a state level,” Newsom told Bloomberg in January. Newsom has instead pushed for a national billionaires tax.
In Washington state, Democratic Gov. Bob Ferguson signed a new law creating an additional 9.9% tax on residents who earn mo...

- Millions of Americans begin their home search online, where listings now commonly include information about a property's potential exposure to flooding, wildfire, heat and other climate-related hazards. But the growing use of private climate risk scores is becoming the focus of a political debate, with critics arguing the ratings may unfairly influence home values and buyer decisions.
Alongside government flood information from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), many real estate websites, including Zillow, Redfin and Realtor.com, also display climate risk assessments from First Street, a private data company. The company uses predictive modeling to estimate how climate-related risks could affect individual properties over time.
Supporters say those projections give prospective buyers a more complete picture of future risks that may not be reflected in historical government data. First Street says its mission is to help consumers and busines...

- Gov. Bob Ferguson arrived in Spokane on Sunday afternoon to meet with first responders and monitor a growing wildfire crisis after declaring a statewide emergency and imposing a burn ban amid record drought, strong winds and rapidly spreading fires.
Ferguson called the situation an “unprecedented catastrophe” and said he expects a large response.
Ferguson said he has spoken with President Trump and Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin.
About 5,000 homes and 60,000 people have been evacuated as firefighters work to contain the fires, and authorities have opened an evacuation shelter at the Spokane Convention Center. Officials continue to report more than 600 structures damaged or destroyed, though they cannot yet break down how many are homes, businesses, schools or other buildings.

- Dr. Anthony Fauci returned to Capitol Hill on Wednesday to testify before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, where Republican lawmakers said they planned to question him about the federal government's response to the COVID-19 pandemic, including lockdowns, school closures, mask guidance and vaccine policies.
The hearing also comes after the release of personal diary entries attributed to Fauci, including one in which he referenced former White House economic adviser Steve Moore after Moore publicly criticized his handling of the pandemic.
