Citing a tax code that was "discriminatory" against non-heterosexual married couples, Warren tweeted Saturday, "It wasn't until marriage equality became law that gay & lesbian couples could jointly file tax returns-so they paid more in taxes. Our government owes them more than $50M for the years our discriminatory tax code left them out. We must right these wrongs."
Warren's Refund Equality Act, introduced June 20, would retroactively apply "married-filing jointly" status - along with refunding the amount overpaid - to same sex couples who were married in states where such unions were recognized prior to the federal government doing so in 2013.

"The federal government forced legally married same-sex couples in Massachusetts to file as individuals and pay more in taxes for almost a decade," Warren explained. "We need to call out that discrimination and to make it right - Congress should pass the Refund Equality Act immediately."
According to NBC News, such reparations could run up a tab of $57 million or higher.

Out of curiosity...has she personally started to pay reparations out of her pocket yet for American Natives she may have displaced from a cushy, high paid job at Harvard by LYING about being an American Native herself?

Many have stated this obvious fact that homosexuality is not the natural norm presumably in part because homosexuality follows a pathway to extinction.
If you follow that particular speculative line of enquiry, The Earth is not 'Lola', it has its own boss, The Sun, who in turn has its own boss, etc, etc.
Q: At present, kind of the whole radical feminist agenda is simply a means to that end?
A: Yes
Q: And I would say it has been from the beginning. We're talking about long, slow, patient manipulation. The C's said it years ago. It's to get everybody programmed to be the way they want them to be when they come to take over so that we'll all be "worthy" subjects. It's creepy.
Is that in any way connected to homosexuality?
A: Yes
Q: Is homosexuality a deliberate tinkering with humanity that is a reflection of a 4D STS mindset?
A: Yes
Q: Is 4D STS gay?
A: No. It is about power not sex.
Q: We see this in the human world in pedophile rings. It's not about sex at all, it's not about love pleasure at all. It's about power.
And domination.
A: There is a small percentage of "normal" homosexuality.
Q: So it is a normal variation like other variations in different human traits, most often due to things like karma or a difference in the order of imprinting, delivery of hormones, or whatever.
shameful.
@HFL:
You are so correct.
Eg: Any number of 'earths' (and its contents) can be sacrificed as a matter of routine, and without serious defect, but the Sun can never die. Unless of course, something is found that is bigger (than the Sun) and can 'boss' it.
Bigger is always better.
This is also known as maintaining a firm grip on reality.
And this is why I am voting for Warren.
She's BIG.
ned,
