It's been two years since Donald Trump and the GOP passed tax cuts for the rich and corporations. They told us their $2 trillion in tax cuts would pay
for themselves. Instead, they’re ballooning the national debt and using
that as an excuse to try and make deep cuts to Social Security,
Medicare, Medicaid, the Affordable Care Act, education, and more.
A new chartbook by Americans for Tax Fairness, “Trump-GOP Tax Cuts Failing Workers and the Economy,” shows eight key promises made by Donald Trump and
congressional Republicans that were used to scam the American people
and ram their tax breaks through Congress.
In 2017, we were told
repeatedly that the giant, unpaid-for tax cuts for the wealthy and
corporations would increase jobs, pay for themselves, give every family a
big raise and really hurt rich people like Donald Trump. The evidence says otherwise.
Consider this: The richest 1% are getting an average tax cut that’s 75 times more than the average tax cut of the bottom 80%―$50,000 vs. $645.
December 22nd marks the two year anniversary of Donald Trump
signing the tax scam into law. Sign the petition to Congress to repeal
the Trump-GOP tax scam and instead implement a fair share tax system
that works for everyone, not just the wealthy few.
