| On Tax Day, Central Valley families are reeling from the consequences of the unpopular Big, Ugly Bill after David Valadao prioritized permanent tax cuts for the ultra-wealthy over lowering costs for hardworking families.
REMINDER: Most Americans say the taxes they paid this year are “too high.” The Big Ugly reality is that Valadao’s signature legislative achievement provides more in tax breaks to the top 1% than to the bottom 80% COMBINED, and is expected to raise taxes on the poorest 40% of Americans.
Rather than distance themselves from the least popular law in modern American history, Valadao and House Republicans are embracing it—despite the fact that their constituents are stuck dealing with rising gas prices, out-of-control utility costs, and massive cuts to Medicaid and food assistance programs.
DCCC Spokesperson Anna Elsasser:
“David Valadao is lying to Californians if he says this is a win for anyone other than his billionaire backers. While Valadao’s billionaire donors celebrate Tax Day in DC, Central Valley families continue to struggle with the cost of living crisis and won’t forget this betrayal in November.” |
