Oxfam France is legally challenging the French state, arguing that successive tax reforms have worsened economic inequality and failed to meet constitutional obligations. Nicolas Vercken, Director of Advocacy for Oxfam France, emphasizes the issue isn’t the tax percentage but *who* is taxed and *for what*. The organization contends that recent fiscal policies have disproportionately favored the wealthiest citizens in France. This legal initiative comes as France grapples with significant budgetary issues and debates. Oxfam France seeks to put fiscal inequality under judicial review, potentially for years to come. The challenge highlights growing concerns about poverty levels in France, reaching decades-high points, and rising hunger.
