NEW POLL: Only 28% of Americans Back Ryan-McConnell Tax Plan
October 24, 2017
"They think that the rich are going to benefit? … Well, the rich are going to always benefit. The question is: What works?" – Senator Orrin Hatch
What ‘works'? Certainly not the GOP tax cuts for the rich. A new Reuters poll shows only 28 percent of Americans support the Ryan-McConnell tax framework.
Republicans' deeply damaging tax and budget agenda:
- Raises taxes on middle class, working families
- Borrows trillions from the future to give tax cuts to the wealthiest
- Ransacks Medicare & Medicaid
What ‘works' for the American people is tax reform that puts the middle class first, not more deficit-exploding tax cuts for billionaires. Instead of pushing their tax plan that would hurt hard-working families in all 50 states, Republicans must work with Democrats on bipartisan tax reform that guarantees not one penny in tax cuts for the rich.
