Citizens for Tax Justice is a Washington, D.C.-based advocacy and lobbying think tank founded in 1979. CTJ’s work focuses primarily on federal tax policy. Its stated mission is to "give ordinary people a greater voice in the development of tax laws." CTJ’s goals include: "fair taxes for middle and low-income families; requiring the wealthy to pay their fair share; closing corporate tax loopholes; adequately funding important government services; reducing the federal debt; (promoting ) taxation that minimizes distortion of economic markets." CTJ is generally considered to be a left-wing organization, but its research has also been cited by Republican politicians (including President Ronald Reagan) and right-wing tax reform organizations when favorable to their policies. The organization's 2013 Form 990 Tax Return states its purpose is "to promote social welfare."〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=2013 Form 990 Return of Organization Exempt From Income Tax )〕 The organization's president, Wayne Cox, is Executive Director of Minnesota Citizens for Tax Justice. CTJ, a 501(c4) organization, is directed by Robert S. McIntyre. == Publications == Many of the reports written by Citizens for Tax Justice rely on analyses produced by the "ITEP Microsimulation Tax Model", which is housed at its partner organization, the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy (ITEP). Revenue and distributional estimates of current federal tax policies, as well as of policies proposed by members of Congress, the President, presidential nominees, or CTJ itself are the topic of a large number of the organization’s reports. CTJ has also published a significant number of reports analyzing the financial statements of large corporations in order to calculate their effective corporate income tax rates. The first of those reports was released in 1984.〔 In addition, CTJ also produces a weekly e-mail newsletter—the "Tax Justice Digest"—which surveys federal and state tax policy news, developments, and trends. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Citizens for Tax Justice」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
