NEW CBO ANALYSIS: Gabe Evans’ Budget Bill Would Rob Poorest Coloradans of $1,600 Each Year

Richest households would see their resources increase, CBO says
 

New analysis from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO) finds that the House Republican Tax Scam – supported by vulnerable Colorado Republican Gabe Evans – will force Coloradans to foot the bill for huge tax breaks to billionaires.

The new CBO report finds that Evans’ plan would cost the poorest households $1,600, while boosting resources for the rich.

This new analysis comes as Evans has been lying about his bill’s dangerous agenda of slashing Medicaid, kicking more than 225,000 Coloradans off their health care, and gutting the SNAP programs that more than 218,600 Colorado 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: Gabe Evans’ plan funds tax breaks for billionaires off the backs of working Coloradans. Evans’ 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. Evans might as well file his pink slip now.”
