Washington, D.C. – Just a few weeks ago, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) announced that the Democrats’ spending agenda would add $367 BILLION to the federal deficit. And the non-partisan Tax Policy Center estimated that 20 to 30 percent of middle-income households would pay more in taxes under the Democrats’ plan.
Even with these facts, Florida Congresswoman Val Demings is determined to push the Democrats’ lie.
While the Demings-supported bill is NOT paid for and DOES include higher taxes for the middle class, it also includes a massive tax cut for millionaire and billionaire donors in Schumer’s New York and Pelosi’s California. Tax INCREASES for middle-class families. Tax CUTS for millionaires and billionaires in states controlled by Democrats. That’s Val’s plan for Florida.
We can understand why she’s lying about the bill she supports.
Statement from NRSC Spokeswoman Priscilla Ivasco: “Val Demings is just flat-out lying. The truth is that the Democrats’ Build Back Broke plan WILL raise taxes on some middle-class families. And it is NOT paid for, according to the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office. There is no denying that Val Demings is all in on the Democrats’ radical agenda that will hurt middle-class families in Florida.”
