Original Note:
Sen. Sanders is referencing a 2021 ProPublica story on taxes paid by the wealthiest individuals in America. This analysis defined a metric termed the "true tax rate" that takes into account wealth growth. It has been incorrectly labeled as "effective tax rate" in this tweet. https://www.propublica.org/article/the-secret-irs-files-trove-of-never-before-seen-records-reveal-how-the-wealthiest-avoid-income-tax
