New analysis from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO) finds that the House Republican Tax Scam – supported by vulnerable Missouri Republican Ann Wagner – will force Missourians to foot the bill for huge tax breaks to billionaires.
The new CBO report finds that Wagner’s plan would cost the poorest households $1,600, while boosting resources for the rich.
This new analysis comes as Wagner has been lying about her bill’s dangerous agenda of slashing Medicaid, kicking more than 250,000 Missourians off their health care, and gutting the SNAP programs that more than 246,000 Missouri households depend on – all to pay for tax breaks for the richest Americans.
DCCC Spokesperson Lindsay Reilly:
“The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office’s new report confirms what we’ve known all along: Ann Wagner’s plan funds tax breaks for billionaires off the backs of working Missourians. Wagner’s agenda to hike costs for families, kick thousands off their health care, and take food out of people’s mouths is as unpopular as it is dangerous. Wagner might as well file her pink slip now.” |
