Wealth Tax Hearing
Sep

Wealth Tax Hearing

Last spring, Tax the Rich PHL and Councilmember Kendra Brooks launched our campaign for the Philly Wealth Tax. On Wednesday, 9/21 at 1PM, join us to show support for the Philly Wealth Tax at our (in-person) City Council hearing!

The Philly Wealth Tax would generate vital funding (over $200 million per year) that could be invested in helping the most vulnerable Philadelphians recover fully from the pandemic and from decades of city disinvestment. The Wealth Tax would help close the racial wealth gap and bring needed resources to Black and Brown neighborhoods.

Throughout the pandemic, billionaires and ultrarich increased their wealth by nearly 60% -- while working class communities, and particularly Black and Brown communities, suffered. The Philly Wealth Tax would require those who have the most to pay what they owe -- with the top 5% wealthiest Philadelphians generating 70% of the revenue.

Join us in-person to pack City Council on Wednesday, September 21st at 1PM and demand a Philly Wealth Tax!

General Election Canvassing!
Sep
10
to Nov 8

General Election Canvassing!

On November 8th, Pennsylvania will vote for a slate of candidates including Governor and US Senate. These races are critical to our future. In the past 8 years, PA state legislature has passed hundreds of far right bills that would be the law of the land in Pennsylvania without Governor Wolf's veto. These bills would have stripped us of reproductive rights, lgbtq rights, labor rights and furthered the environmental extraction taking place in PA.

We're committed to showing up in the streets and at the ballot box to fight for the world we need. We can't lose ground in PA or DC. We know that with investment, Philly will show up to vote and our canvassing can make a real impact. ​​

Join us and sign up for a canvassing shift in your neighborhood today!

Non Violent Direct Action Training

Join Philly Thrive, Cobbs Creek Environmental Justice and EQAT for a Non Violent Direct Action Training

”Decisions affecting our lives are being made without us & against our best interests. Our voices are not being heard. In times like these throughout history, people have turned to nonviolent direct action, using our people power to disrupt injustices taking place directly, without needing anyone else to stop the injustice for us.

This training will prepare residents to stand for real environmental justice as Philly's historic refinery redevelopment progresses. This training will also build participants' skills organizing protests across issues and campaigns. Whether you're fighting for affordable housing, standing against incarceration, or organizing to protect green space and community resources, join us to deepen your understanding of why direct action works, to role play direct action scenarios, and to explore specific action possibilities.

Real environmental justice at this PES refinery site is overdue, and we have to stop this culture of disrespectful development across Philly neighborhoods. It's time for bold action that can shift the direction our city is headed where residents are ignored, displaced, and built over top of.”

---

This training will be offered in-person at Stinger Square Park w/ a rain location of 1101 S. 27th St (27th & Ellsworth). Zoom option also available.
