HRES 1468 United States House · 119th Congress

Encouraging Congress to pursue reforms to ensure that all United States citizens contribute to funding the operations of the Federal Government in proportion to the economic gains they realize.

This resolution encourages Congress to reform the tax system so that all citizens pay taxes based on their total economic gains, regardless of whether that income comes from wages or investments. It highlights current disparities where wage earners are taxed at the source while wealth from assets like stocks, real estate, and digital currencies often escapes immediate taxation through deferrals, inheritance rules, and charitable vehicles. The bill specifically urges the House Ways and Means Committee to hold hearings on these differences and calls for consistent tax treatment across all income sources to ensure fairness in funding the federal government.
