Protecting American Taxpayers
Allowing Americans to keep the fruits of their labor is fundamental to our pursuit of happiness.
As conservatives, we know that the power to tax was not established in the Constitution as a
resource to fund a perpetually expanding federal government; the federal government should
not seek to tax beyond what is necessary to fund the defense of this country and fulfill its
obligations to the people under the law. That simple truth defines the fight over the next year
to make the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) permanent and reject calls to further raise taxes.
The expiration of the Trump-Pence tax cuts, which President Biden is calling for, would
hamstring an already limping American economy strangled by overregulation from Washington
and bring about a return to the failed tax policies of yesteryear that hollowed out America’s
heartland and sent millions of American jobs overseas.
Despite constant doom-and-gloom prognostications, 2017’s tax cuts have been a roaring
success for the American people. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act created instant income growth
for hardworking Americans, generated millions of new jobs, and brought back billions of dollars
to the United States. Household incomes saw real gains before Bidenomics took effect, and
federal tax revenue has never been higher.
As conservatives, we understand that lower tax rates mean more economic growth. But we
also understand that economics is not just about charts in textbooks: lower tax rates keep
money in the pockets of hardworking Americans, and ensuring people keep as much of their
hard-earned money as possible should be a constant goal of conservatives. Lower tax rates
help small business owners thrive, expand, and hire more employees as business takes off. It
means an economy where jobs stay in the U.S. rather than go to China or Mexico.
Ultimately, Washington’s “spend, spend, spend” mentality – not the desire to let people keep
what they earn – is the main driver of the national debt and deficit.
Advancing American Freedom will defend the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and reject President
Biden’s tax increases. We will be urging conservative leaders to join us in this fight, champion
American families that have benefited from this legislation, and put an end to Biden’s plans to
hike taxes.
In order to protect Americans families, workers, and small businesses from looming tax
increases, we have created a road map for conservatives facing the expiration of the Tax Cuts
and Jobs Act. Our vision is based on four essential principles.
-
Washington must prevent looming tax hikes on American workers and small businesses.
-
To beat China, the U.S. must maintain a low business tax rate.
-
Tax policy should not be made based on faulty math and inaccurate estimates.
-
Washington cannot tax America out of our spending-driven debt crisis.
-
To balance our budget, Washington must stop spending beyond its means
