Constitutional Amendment - A Modern Check on Government

We, the people of the United States, declare that the expenditure of money in politics does not constitute free speech but instead amplifies certain voices disproportionately. To restore fairness and ensure equal representation, we find this practice no longer acceptable. Through this amendment, we affirm the necessity of limiting the influence of money and external entities in American elections, enhancing transparency, and implementing measures for ethical modern governance to preserve our democracy for future generations of Americans.

Introduction and Policy Overview

In this analysis, we evaluate the effects of repealing the 2017 Trump-era tax cuts and implementing a

modernized version of post–World War II U.S. tax policy. During the post-WWII era (1940s–1960s), the U.S.

tax code featured very high progressive rates – top marginal income tax rates above 90% and corporate tax rates
