      „According to an [analysis](https://www.jct.gov/publications/2025/jcx-23-25/) by Congress’ Joint Committee on Taxation, Trump’s reconciliation bill will raise taxes on Americans earning under $15,000 in 2027. By 2029 and going forward, the legislation will continue to increase taxes on those individuals, as well Americans earning between $15,000 and $30,000.“

      „Millionaires, meanwhile, will see tax cuts in each year included in the analysis. In two of four years, according to the JCT analysis, millionaires will see a larger average decrease in their tax rate than Americans will overall.“

      „From 2027 to 2033, Americans earning under $30,000 are expected to pay collectively nearly $18 billion more in taxes. At the same time, individuals who earn more than $1 million will collectively receive tax cuts totaling $242 billion.“

      „Rep. Don Beyer (D-Va.) offered an explanation for why “tens of millions of working Americans will see a tax INCREASE in 2029 under Republicans’ bill,” in a [thread](https://bsky.app/profile/beyer.house.gov/post/3lp66k5ine22s) posted Wednesday evening to Bluesky. He wrote that Republicans’ legislation would only temporarily cut taxes on tips and overtime pay, which were two of Trump’s key 2024 campaign promises — “as opposed to the cuts for the richest 1 percent, which they made permanent.”“

      „The reconciliation bill’s [current changes](https://www.yahoo.com/news/republican-medicaid-cuts-could-force-133000259.html) to Medicaid, the government health insurance program for low-income Americans and the disabled, are [already expected](https://x.com/larry_levitt/status/1922417450743660723?s=46) to result in 10 million adults and children losing their insurance coverage.“

      „Despite the clear indicators that Republicans’ reconciliation package will be a disaster for working class Americans, in both the short and long term, the party seems hellbent on forcing them through Congress to appease Trump. What’s even more disheartening is that the majority of the opposition is not holding out over concern for their constituents, but a feeling that the legislation won’t rip the social safety net out from under them fast enough.“

      That’s because in Trumps world „Everyone“ doesn’t include the poors. It only includes his rich golfing buddies and his own bank account.

      Even if they make too little for income taxes, the poorer you are, the larger the percentage of your income goes to taxes.

    4. Yea „everyone of import“. Remember…these people think the poor are just there to be slaves

      Man of the people. Thank goodness we didn’t elect another politician.

      If you add potential import tarrifs, even the middle class will see a large increase in „taxes“, even if it’s hidden. 

    7. Fuck this guy but the logic for „raising“ taxes is stupid. If they didn’t include the no tax on tips at all, would we call it a raise?  So the fact that they’re doing it and it sunsets isn’t a raise. It just means it will revert back to where it is now. It’s not good, and they should definitely spread the word that it’s not a permanent thing, but to call it a tax increase?  I’m much more upset about the Medicare changes.

      Last time I checked, they way you reduce debt is to increase revenue. Cutting taxes seems rather fiscally irresponsible.

      Please put this shit on Fox News, that’s the only way these dumb fucks will start paying attention.

      The poor? Im not poor. Im part of 85% of the fucking country with higher taxes. He raised them on almost everyone

    11. thistimelineisweird on

      The fact that taxes go up in 2029 shows they’re already planning on losing that cycle. They’re already planting bombs for the next administration to take the blame.

    12. A reminder of two classic Trumpisms in one headline.

      He tells a blatant lie about his taxes and is quite happy to take action that hurts the most vulnerable people in society.

      I don’t believe the English langauge has a word strong enough to describe just how horrendously evil Trump is.

    13. He could spoon feed them shit and tell them it’s chocolate and they would thank him.

    14. naththegrath10 on

      What is crazy is he will get away with saying this. Even as they pay more his supporters will deny it

    15. Maleficent_Pay_4154 on

      Liar liar pants on fire.

      He is the living end. He doesn’t care about the poor at all.

    16. Americans making less than $30,000 will actually pay more in taxes under the GOP’s plan than under current law. Americans making less than $15,000 — the poorest of the poor — will pay 53% more in taxes than they do now as their average tax rate jumps from 3.3% to 5.1%. Meanwhile, households making over a million will pay 6.4% less in taxes (totaling an estimated $74 billion collectively), as their average rate falls from 30.8% to 28.7%.
