Not for nothing, but I happen to have close, personal relations with certain high net worth individuals who support this tax...#mapoli? 😏

Progressive Mass @ProgressiveMass

That's why we're fighting for the #FairShareAmendment: Yes on Q1. Q1 will provide significant new resources to maintain our transportation infrastructure across the state before another crisis occurs, and only those who earn more than $1m a year will pay more. #mapoli (4/x)
