From Carolina Journal Radio Program No. 674: Americans still have another week of work ahead of them before they’ve earned enough money to pay the tax man.

It arrives this year on April 24, nine days after the official tax filing deadline. The Tax Foundation’s Jared Walczak explains the significance of Tax Freedom Day and recent changes in the annual milestone.
