AFSCME has helped put together the Fair Taxes for All Coalition, a group of more than 500 labor, civil rights, environmental, religious and community organizations, to fight the Bush plan.

“President Bush’s gigantic tax cut for the rich doesn’t make economic sense, and it doesn’t make moral sense,” AFSCME President Gerald W. McEntee, said. “Why not save and spend in a way that will help all Americans?”
