TAX DAY REMINDER: Monica De La Cruz Is Determined To Hurt the Middle Class, While Bailing Out Big Corporations and Billionaires

Tax Day is a potent reminder that if Monica De La Cruz and House Republicans were to maintain the majority, they would work with former President Trump to rig the tax code to benefit the well-off and well-connected at the expense of middle class families.

The GOP Tax Scam of 2017 was a corporate tax giveaway that disproportionately benefited the ultra rich – and on the stump, Donald Trump is selling his plan to cut taxes for billionaires … to billionaires. More than 40% of the benefits would go to those in the top 5% income bracket, leaving middle class families with the bill.

Monica De La Cruz and nearly 80% of the House Republican Conference is a member of the Republican Study Committee, a far-right group that has endorsed extending the GOP Tax Scam as part of the 2025 budget proposal. 

Recent polling shows the overwhelming majority of Americans support plans to tax the ultra rich and massive corporations to make an economy work from the middle-out and bottom-up, not the top-down.

DCCC Spokesperson Lauryn Fanguen:
“At the behest of Donald Trump, Monica De La Cruz is going to rig the system to cut taxes for big corporations and billionaires, leaving Texas  families behind. Thanks to Republican extremism, Tax Day is another reminder that the middle class is fronting the bill for tax cheats, shady billionaires, and multinational corporations profiting from off-shoring American jobs.”
