New Ad Highlights Harms of Republicans’ Billionaire Tax Scam Ahead of Tax Day and Key House Votes

Washington, D.C. – As millions of Americans have taxes on their mind ahead of Tax Day on April 15th, Families Over Billionaires is launching a new, six-figure ad buy to remind them, and leaders in Washington, that Congress should be delivering for working families, not giving billionaires another tax break. 

The new ad titled “Thank You” features a billionaire sarcastically thanking Republicans for increasing his tax refund at the expense of health care and critical services for working families – which is exactly what the budget framework House Republicans are advancing this week will do. 

The ad launches today and will run the full week ahead of Tax Day on April 15th. It will run on both streaming TV and digital platforms including Hulu, Roku, Apple TV, YouTube, Peacock and more.  

WATCH “Thank You”:

Ad Transcript: 

“This Tax Day, I want to thank Republicans in Congress for having the guts to slash health care for families, seniors, and our veterans – all to give billionaires like me another tax break. 

Do I need it? No. 

Can America afford it? No. 

But will I use it to give back to the community? Definitely not. Why would I?

Ah, here’s Barnaby bringing me my refund. Wow, that is a big number.”
