President Trump and Republicans would have you believe that the ‘biggest winners will be the everyday American workers' in their tax ‘reform' plan, even though they refuse to guarantee that their plan won't raise taxes on hard-working families.  In reality, the Ryan-McConnell tax framework cuts taxes for the wealthiest, raises taxes on middle class families and adds trillions of dollars to the deficit.

But don't take our word for it, Editorial Boards from coast-to-coast are criticizing their tax plan and revealing it for what it truly is – a tax cut for the wealthy few on the backs of hardworking Americans.
