Today, Groundwork Collaborative’s Executive Director Lindsay Owens released the following statement in response to the introduction of new legislation in the House to permanently extend the Trump tax cuts of 2017:
“It’s no surprise that the House majority wants to spend trillions of dollars to extend the Trump tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans and biggest corporations – but it’s absolute hypocrisy from the same members who are pushing us to a debt limit crisis on claims they care about the deficit. Congress should be working together to invest in worker and family priorities and increase taxes on the rich – not give them another handout.”
