What happens when health workers can’t afford food? Or when teachers live in slums? Society breaks down. That’s the IMF legacy.#TaxJusticeForAll End Debt Injustices

Export-oriented debt repayment policies worsen inequality and hurt local economies. End Debt Injustices by promoting policies that value people over profit and sustainability over short-term gains. #TaxJusticeForAll

The Appropriation Act tells gov’t how to spend our taxes and borrowed funds. If passed without scrutiny, it funds waste & unjust debt. We must track where every shilling goes. Public money must serve public good. #TaxJusticeForAll End Debt Injustices ActionAid Kenya Global Platform Kenya

Too often, money is appropriated without solid plans, leading to waste, stalled projects or inflated debt. Article 220(1) is supposed to stop that. But when Parliament passes budgets without transparency, it fails the people~Benard Muchiri #TaxJusticeForAll End Debt Injustices
