MAKE CORPORATIONS PAY THEIR FAIR SHARE


Tax Breaks are Breaking the 99%
 Ward’s Natural Science Is Taking Off With Our Money!
  
WHAT:   Press Event to demand that corporations start paying their fair share, rather than raiding our local and state budgets while cutting jobs!
WHEN:   Tuesday, February 21st
               11:15 AM
WHERE:  County of Monroe IDA
                Ebenezer Watts Conference Center
                49 S. Fitzhugh Street
                Rochester, NY 14614

 DETAILS:  Corporations in NYS aren’t paying their fair share in taxes. We need to rein in over $8 billion dollars in corporate giveaways to support vital public services like education and health care, while preserving and growing the good jobs that working families need. VWR/Ward’s Natural Science has laid off 41 warehouse workers after receiving tax break after tax break from the Erie County IDA as far back as 1971. Now they’re getting tax breaks in Rochester and promising that community they’ll create jobs. It’s time to stop the madness.
