Recently sworn-in Rep. Ilhan Omar doubled-down on her proposed 70% tax hike this week; saying the increase is necessary to “reduce the worst wealth inequality the world has ever seen.”
“We need a #WealthTax,” she tweeted Tuesday. “Most Americans support this to reduce the worst wealth inequality the world has ever seen.”
We need a #WealthTax:
✅Pay Ratio Corporate Tax
✅2% on those worth > $50 million
✅3% on those worth > $1 billion
✅#MarginalTaxRate: At least 70% on income > $10 millionMost Americans support this to reduce the worst wealth inequality the world has ever seen.

Omar stunned colleagues and politicians on both sides of the aisle last week when she claimed she routinely “chuckles” when people refer to Israel as a “democracy.”
