Please consider signing Elizabeth Warren's petition that every candidate for President

put 10 years of tax returns online.

She's leading the way.

(Signing the petition will take you to a donation page for Act Blue, so this is a fundraiser, too -- but the petition is separate. No donation is necessary.)

Elizabeth Warren

@ewarren
I put the past 10 years of my federal tax returns online. And now I’m calling on every other candidate for President to do exactly the same thing. Add your name to our petition calling on all 2020 presidential candidates to put their taxes online. https://my.elizabethwarren.com/page/s/ew-taxreturns?source=20190213tw


Sign our petition: call on everyone running for President to release their tax returns
We’ve got to hold ourselves - and our candidates, and our elected officials - to the highest standard of accountability and transparency.

you can set up a dummy account for that stuff and have it forward only the ones you're actually interested in. It's incredibly easy and quick to do. Boom. Away goes your political spam.

At least tax returns were checked by someone else (the IRS), medical records aren’t vetted by anyone.

A candidate's wealth doesn't matter to me. What matters is WHERE it comes from... and where it's being held, and how it's being invested. If a candidate has nothing to hide then he (or she) should be eager to quickly produce their FULL tax returns for inspection and evaluation.
