Robin Hood Tax movement gaining momentum

More European governments embrace the call for a Robin Hood Tax.

At PSI’s  recent World Congress, members adopted a resolution backing the implementation of a financial transactions tax in countries around the world. Pavanelli adds, “PSI is proud of our role in promoting a financial transactions tax through targeted campaigning working with our affiliates and allies. We are committed to continuing to lobby for the introduction of such a tax across the world, to benefit the common good.”

As of January 22, 11 European countries have joined the call.
