The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee is launching its second television ad in Michigan’s 1st Congressional District, highlighting how Congressman Benishek’s tax plan would cut taxes for millionaires while raising taxes on middle class families. The ad calculates that the more you make, the less you pay under Congressman Benishek’s plan. The ad, which is on the air now, invites residents to see for themselves how much more they would pay in taxes at www.BenishekTax.com.
