The Republicans will say that they are giving tax relief to working families. Do not believe it for one minute. What the Republicans are doing is waging war on working families. The Republican tax plan will give $27,000 in tax breaks to the wealthiest 1 percent. Is this fairness? I will say it again. They want to give $27,000 in tax breaks to the wealthiest 1 percent. For families trying to move from welfare to work, they want to deny worker protections, they want to deny family and medical leave, and they refuse to guarantee protections for 10 million uninsured children. Do not be fooled. The Republican budget is a big gift to wealthy campaign contributors, and the Republican budget is an attack on working families.
