Points for Action:

• Educate all women to understand and reframe tax, taxation, spending, and economic issues as women’s issues.

• Build alliances between poor, working, and middle class women.

• Help women of all income levels understand their own economic self-interest and how that self-interest does or does not align with current policy.

• Build partnerships by making economic analyses widely available to policy groups, research centers, local/activist organizations; educate progressive organizations whose work directly relates to tax policy how such policies affect women.
