The Cost of Corporate Tax Avoidance


When corporations avoid paying taxes, public education gets shortchanged.

NEA Research has created a series of charts that reflect the cost – in lost federal dollars for education – of corporate tax avoidance based on Citizens for Tax Justice’s analysis. The charts cover:

  • How much federal aid each state would have received for education from 2008-2010
  • Education jobs that would have been supported
  • Amount for all other grants to state and local governments
