STUDY: Biden’s Tax Hikes Will Hammer Main Street Businesses

Recovery-killing tax hikes will negatively impact more than one million small businesses
July 14, 2021 — Blog    — Press Releases    — Select Revenue Measures   

Despite the repeated pledges to *only* raise taxes on the very wealthy and corporations, new analysis shows that President Biden’s recovery-killing tax hikes will land on more than one million Main Street businesses.

This comes after the Tax Policy Center found that President Biden’s pledge not to raise taxes on the middle-class doesn’t hold much water. The liberal group estimates that the President’s overall tax plan will raise taxes on 75 percent of middle-class families next year.

And while middle-class families see their paychecks shrink, consumer prices skyrocket, and good-paying jobs shipped overseas, Democrats will protect wealthy Americans against President Biden’s higher income and capital gains taxes.

The last thing Americans need is higher taxes to pay for Democrats’ runaway spending.

President Biden’s Global Tax Hike is An Economic Surrender.
