I'm sorry if this is the wrong place for this (as this seems to be a Portuguese language only community), but Portugal is trailing behind with only 3.5% of the 14.805 Portuguese signatures necessary. If there is a place better for this feel free to pint me to it (or crosspost it there yourself)

If the petition reaches 1 million signatures, the European Commission is legally required to at least introduce it as a proposed law.

... That is if you are a citizen of the European Union. If the petition reaches 1 million signatures, the European Commission (basically the government of the EU) is legally required to at least introduce it as a proposed law.

Tax The Rich

A big plea to you to support "Tax-the-Rich". The aim is to tax the super-rich in order to finance more climate protection. If this EU citizens' initiative reaches certain thresholds, it must be scrutinised. A powerful tool if it is used.

"An EU Citizens' Initiative does not have to reach the threshold in all countries, only in 7 out of 27"

The closest: France 188% 🇩🇰 87% 🇩🇪 80% Belgium 64% 🇮🇹 44% Netherlands 32% Slovenia 26%

Deadline 9.10.24

The contribution would be used to combat climate change and inequality and would help to ensure that European citizens pay their fair share towards achieving these objectives.

The minimum threshold of signatories is only required a quarter of the EU countries, so in 7 of 27. France is already at 188% of the required threshold, Denmark at 88% and Germany at 80%

Grosse Bitte an euch "Tax-the-Rich" zu unterstützen. Es gilt Superreiche zu besteuern um mehr Klimaschutz zu finanzieren. Wenn diese EU-Bürgerinitiative bestimmte Schwellenwerte erreicht, muss sie geprüft werden. Ein mächtiges Tool, wenn es genutzt wird.

„Eine EU-Bürgerinitiative muss nicht in allen Ländern den Schwellenwert erreichen, nur in 7 von 27“

Am nächsten dran: France 188% 🇩🇰 87% 🇩🇪 80% Belgium 64% 🇮🇹 44% Netherlands 32% Slovenia 26%

Deadline 9.10.24

Even beginnen met een korte inleiding. Een tijdje terug was er opmerkelijk nieuws, Oostenrijkse erfgename uit BASF-familie geeft 25 miljoen euro weg Deze Marlene Engelhorn, zag ik nu, hoort ook bij Millionaires for Humanity die dit burger initiatief Tax the rich EU ondersteunen. Er zijn 1 miljoen handtekeningen nodig en wel met een minimum drempel aantal voor zeven landen uit de EU. Frankrijk zit als eerste al boven die drempel 🙂 Nederland staat op dit moment niet heel erg laag genoteerd dus als dit initiatief wat meer bekendheid krijgt dan zou Nederland ook over die drempel kunnen gaan. Als je kijkt op de site dan zie je dat het niet in Nederlands is vertaald en dat er bij het kopje Press ook niets in het Nederlands is te vinden (Wel in het Frans en Spaans). Misschien een extra reden om dit iniatitief bekender te laten worden. Tot ~~24~~ 9 October dit jaar kan er worden getekend. Dus geef het door aan iedereen waarvan je denkt dat zij ook zouden willen tekenen.
