An economist at the forefront of the growing global push for a billionaire wealth tax is welcoming news that U.S. Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris is embracing calls for a minimum levy on the United States' richest individuals.
The article cited the 2025 budget [PDF]. It’s under the section “Proposes a Minimum Tax on Billionaires”.

Though the Harris campaign is not directly mentioned, I think we may assume it’s coming from both Harris and Biden.

This is actually really helpful clarification, I did just miss some of that. It’s no wealth tax, but it’s better than nothing.
