While opposing a state-level billionaire tax that could drive wealth out of California, he’s proposing a federal minimum tax on ultra-high-net-worth individuals, stricter lending rules, and inheritance tax reforms to prevent a permanent aristocracy. He also wants to restore pre-Trump corporate tax rates and invest in worker retraining, universal childcare, free college, and healthcare — all while signaling a potential presidential run and reshaping the national conversation on wealth and power.
