Unless you’ve been backwoods skiing and just made it back to your iPhone, you already know that both the Senate and House passed legislation that extends the $10 million per couple estate tax exemption and raises the rate to 40%. The good news? We still have an estate tax, and it's been strengthened for the first time in 28 years. The bad news? It's still not strong enough, and there's more to be done.

Tell the your elected officials to preserve and strengthen the estate tax. In the face of the fiscal cliff, raising more revenue from the estate tax is the best solution to avoid painful cuts.

But this isn’t just about the dollar figures. It’s about our shared values as a society and the creation of equal opportunities for everyone.
