The misleadingly-named “Protecting the Right to Organize” (PRO) Act would dramatically increase Big Labor's power at the expense of the American worker. The bill is a grab-bag of liberal priorities that would kill small businesses and threaten millions of American jobs. Yet the PRO Act is only one component of President Joe Biden's war on worker freedom. ATR President Grover Norquist and Open Competition Center's Tom Hebert discuss the PRO Act and the Biden administration's plan to carry out Big Labor's agenda.   Leave Us Alone with Grover Norquist is a weekly video and audio podcast found on all major podcast streaming services: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wwNrbllZpg Facebook: https://fb.watch/5LHIvNgtnF/ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/4ldFfRCMgVukOs1sA67tE6?si=8lg5rtyMSpSgI1KYvAR1pw Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/bidens-costly-intrusive-plan-for-the-irs/id1569240102?i=1000523213205

David Chipman, President Biden's pick to lead the ATF, recently confirmed his support for a $200 gun tax, which also applies to magazines of over ten rounds, and a ban on AR-15s. Joe Biden and his administration would force semiautomatic rifle owners to either participate in a gun buyback program or register their firearm under the National Firearms Act, which requires a $200 tax payment. This would extend to AR-15s and other common household rifles. Join ATR President Grover Norquist for the latest episode of Leave Us Alone as he discusses Biden's efforts to tax the 2nd Amendment out of existence with John R. Lott, President of the Crime Prevention Research Center.

President Joe Biden wants to hire 86,852 new IRS agents, which would more than double the agency's workforce. Even Obama-era IRS chief John Koskinen – a longtime advocate of increasing the IRS budget – thinks President Joe Biden's proposal to increase IRS funding by $80 billion is too much. Rather than fix the agency's longstanding mismanagement, ineptitude and abuse problems, Biden's approach will make the problem worse. Numerous watchdog reports have found that the agency's inability to do its job is due to incompetence, not lack of funding. The last thing the IRS needs is more power and responsibility. In fact, it is likely that new responsibilities will become overwhelming for the IRS, leading to these new scandals and new cases of taxpayer abuse. Join ATR President Grover Norquist as he discusses the history of IRS scandals and taxpayer abuses with author James Bovard.

President Biden announced his “American Jobs Plan” – a two trillion dollar spending boondoggle meant to target all sorts of infrastructural issues. ATR President Grover Norquist and Digital Liberty's Katie McAuliffe examine how the President's Plan will impact technology and broadband.

Progressive lawmakers, led by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and Sen. Ed Markey (D-Mass.), recently rolled out an expanded form of the Green New Deal that includes funding to hire 1.5 million uniformed climate activists to serve in the “Civilian Climate Corps.” The hall monitors of the Green New Deal. Ocasio-Cortez's call for a Civilian Climate Corps is an attempted revival of the Civilian Conservation Corps that existed briefly during the 1930s where members often lived in military barracks and wore military-style uniforms. Tune in as ATR President Grover Norquist talks the details of the Green New Deal and Carbon Taxes with Mike Palicz, ATR's Energy Policy Expert.

Raising the corporate rate to 25%, as some Democrats are calling for, would leave America with a rate higher than many foreign competitors and harm American workers, businesses, and investment. Yet, Voters believe the US corporate rate should be at or below the rates of our foreign competitors – including China -- and believe that raising taxes on businesses could ship existing jobs overseas and result in new jobs being created overseas instead of in America. Join ATR President Grover Norquist as he discusses why Democrat policies will not help working American families and workers.
