Protecting Americans from Harmful Overreach
Our Mission
In the lead-up to the Build Back Better vote during the 117th Congress, the Coalition to Protect American Workers (CPAW) led a strategic, multi-million dollar campaign to defeat some of the most harmful provisions in the proposed legislation. Our efforts successfully blocked measures that would have eliminated stepped-up basis, raised marginal tax rates, and dramatically expanded the IRS’s auditing power over American families and small businesses.
Through a national education and advocacy effort, CPAW mobilized constituents, shaped public opinion, and generated sustained pressure on lawmakers. We also partnered with allied organizations to amplify our message through grassroots events, media outreach, and direct engagement with communities across the country.
By highlighting the real-world consequences of misguided economic policy, we helped protect American workers, families, and entrepreneurs from harmful overreach.
