Last week, longtime Brownback advisor and Congressional candidate Amanda Adkins finally shared her plan if elected, going on KCUR to endorse a budget proposed by current Republicans in Congress earlier this year.
After Adkins helped disgraced former Governor Brownback enact major corporate tax giveaways that tanked Kansas’ economy, leading to teacher layoffs and shortened school weeks, she is now endorsing a plan to do the same at the national level. The 122-page budget she says she would “absolutely” support last week would continue President Trump’s tax giveaway to the top 1% of earners that added $2 trillion to the national debt.
Adkins’ New “Plan” Step Five: Take Brownback’s Failed Tax Experiment National
-
Make tax cuts for the top 1% of earners permanent, leaving middle class Kansas worse off to benefit Adkins’ wealthy friends.
-
Continue corporate tax giveaways that “overwhelmingly” benefited the ultra-wealthy and corporations while failing to spur any new business investment—exactly what the Adkins-Brownback agenda did at the state level, leading to huge budget shortfalls and decimating Kansas schools.
“Amanda Adkins wants to give her wealthy donors a tax cut at the expense of Kansas families,” said DCCC Spokesperson Johanna Warshaw. “Kansans remember just how disastrous Sam Brownback’s economic plan was, and now Adkins is trying to enforce it nationally. This November, Kansas voters will make sure that the failed Adkins-Brownback budget stays in the past.”
