Both @ZohranMamdani & @BadBunny proclaim NY & Puerto Rico are not for sale. When the rich avoid taxes, it hurts our communities. In time for the Super Bowl, we write in @thenation how we must #AbolishAct22, the worst tax break scheme in the world. archive.ph/2026.01.13-152621…

Act 22 tax evaders like Brock Pierce are eliminating jobs, not creating them, and they are putting lives at risk. #AbolishAct22

“For years, Puerto Rico’s controversial tax haven laws have drawn wealthy Americans looking to avoid income taxes and sparked a property gold rush that pits lower-paid, Spanish-speaking natives against cash-rich Anglophone newcomers.” huffpost.com/entry/puerto-ri… #AbolishAct22
