*New* Webinar on Structural Racism in WA State’s Tax Code: Strategies for Action & Improving Health (5/21/24)
Posted: 5/10/2024 ()
On Tuesday, May 21st from 5:30-7:00 PM, you are invited to a virtual webinar on structural racism in Washington state’s tax code. The racial wealth gap in the United States is a major political and social determinant of racial inequities in health. The structural racism that produces this wealth gap is supported through regressive tax codes and other tax policy throughout the country, including our state tax code here in Washington. CSDE Affiliate Anjum Hajat (Epidemiology) is one of the panelists. In this webinar, organization representatives will discuss (1) tax issues that the WA state legislature may face this coming year, (2) potential impacts on the racial wealth gap, and (3) ways to get involved and help make Washington’s tax code more equitable.
