Attn CO businesses: some powerful voices in CO are misrepresenting 87. They’re hoping you don’t ask how big a biz has to be before it pays a penny more. Most small biz owners pay their biz taxes through personal returns. They are among the 97% getting a tax cut. #YesOn87 #NoOn136

Amendment 87 Fact Check: Which businesses pay? Over $9 of every $10 in new corporate tax revenue from 87 comes from shareholders of multinational corps around the country & world. That’s not you or your small or even mid-sized CO business. That’s national companies. #YesOn87

A selection of actual quotes from Denver Post this weekend #YesOn87 "Many of Colorado’s largest companies can afford a 4% surcharge on any taxable profit they make over $1 million, and their tax burden would still be lower than in many states."

“We appreciate all the hard-working, taxpaying Coloradans who don’t threaten to stop paying their taxes despite our unfair tax system that asks them to shoulder more of the burden and offers them few of the tax deductions and loopholes the rich enjoy to lower their effective tax rate even more.”

“Because Colorado charges income taxes on out-of-state companies using apportionment, a good chunk – 94%, according to a forecast conducted for the proponents of this measure — of the new revenue generated by a 4% surcharge on profits over $1 million will come from out-of-state businesses.”

We need your help to make sure it passes! Billionaire-backed opponents have unleashed a torrent of lies in an effort to defeat the graduated income tax. They are also backing Proposition 136, which aims to nullify the graduated income tax by installing a cap on income tax rates. Vote no on 136.

Only those individuals and businesses making more than $500,000 a year would see their taxes increase. The measure would bring in $2 billion in additional state funding annually for child care, healthcare, and K-12 education.

The wealthy are afraid of paying their fair share. As a retiree who will not be withdrawing anything close to $500,000 per year, I will absolutely get a tax break with Amendment 87. If I were the uber wealth, the increase on my post $500k would not hurt me. I'd be proud to fund CO awesomeness.

Shout-out to the incredible volunteers powering this campaign! Especially everyone who has turned up for our Week of Action so far! We couldn't have gotten anywhere without the power of the people, and the people here are STRONG! Link in bio for upcoming events! #YesOn87

Amendment 87 would tax Coloradans making $500k+ a year. Opponents including Gov Jared Polis (D) are misleadingly claiming it will raise taxes on low-income seniors and vets.
