Kamala Harris And Others Lie About Trump Tax Cuts
With April 15th around the corner, many Americans have their minds on taxes. Kim and Producer Steve address the misinformation around 2018 tax refunds. Many people are claiming that Trump’s Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is actually a tax increase on the poor and the middle class. Kamala Harris, a Democratic Senator of California, has used her platform and access to the press to make this claim.
The average tax refund is down about $170 compared to last year. Let’s call the President’s tax cut what it is: a middle-class tax hike to line the pockets of already wealthy corporations and the 1%.
