Mitt Romney needs to come clean and release more tax returns. The American people deserve to know whether he’s taken advantage of foreign tax havens to avoid paying his fair share. Romney believes in a tax system with two sets of rules – one for himself and others at the top, and another for everyone else. The Romney Tax Hike would make middle-class families pay more in taxes so millionaires like Romney can pay less. 

• Mitt Romney took more heat this weekend from both Republicans and Democrats for not coming clean and releasing more tax returns. The American people deserve to know whether he’s taken advantage of foreign tax havens to avoid paying his fair share.

• Even Republicans want Romney to come clean and release more tax returns. Romney has left too much unexplained about his private-sector record, which he’s made the cornerstone of his campaign. Maybe they’re wondering what John McCain saw in 23 years of Romney’s tax returns that made him decide to pick Sarah Palin instead.

• Romney believes in a tax system with two sets of rules – one for himself and others at the top, and another for everyone else.
  • Romney supports an unfair tax system that lets many of the wealthiest taxpayers take advantage of special breaks and loopholes unavailable to many middle-class families. It lets Romney pay a tax rate lower than many middle-class families pay.
  • Romney may have taken advantage of foreign tax havens to avoid paying his fair share. Until he releases more tax returns, we’ll never know if that’s why he had a $3 million Swiss bank account, a shell corporation in Bermuda or a stake in at least a dozen funds in the Cayman Islands.

• Romney’s values have shaped the policies he’d pursue if elected President. WhilethePresident asks the wealthiest to pay their fair share and reward companies that bring jobs back to America, Romney would do the opposite.
  • The Romney Tax Hike would make middle-class families pay more in taxes so millionaires like Romney can pay less. According to nonpartisan tax experts, it would cost middle-class families with children an average of $2,000 a year to pay for budget-busting tax cuts for millionaires and billionaires like Romney.
  • Romney opposes the President’s plan that would extend middle-class tax cuts for 98 percent of Americans and ask the wealthiest to pay their fair share again.
  • According to an independent economist, Romney’s corporate tax plan would create 800,000 jobs overseas byeliminating taxes on companies’ foreign incomes. Those jobs could come at the expense of American workers.
