On Tuesday, Democratic Whip Steny Hoyer (D-MD) told CNBC that if Democrats regain the majority after the 2018 election, they will look to raise taxes.
The 2018 tax filing deadline is today – Tuesday April 17.
CNBC: Are you looking at raising the tax rate again on the highest earners?
Democrat Steny Hoyer: I think certainly we’ll look to have revenues as opposed to simply creating more debt. This bill is going to create debt. Obama created and previous presidents created.
Democrats like to use the term “revenues” when they are talking about raising taxes today. It is one of their word games – like the “Affordable” care act.
Over 4,000,000 working Americans will receive Trump tax reform bonuses this year.
Democrats want to take that away.
Democrats proposed a trillion dollar tax hike in March.
