ICYMI: Vice President Mike Pence to WSJ: Raising Taxes Is Bad Policy and Bad Politics

April 23, 2025

WASHINGTON, DC – Vice President Mike Pence joined the Wall Street Journal’s Kim Strassel All Things podcast yesterday to discuss how the second Trump Administration compares to the first as it nears the end of its first hundred days. In a wide-ranging conversation with Kim Strassel, Vice President Pence speaks about what the Trump team is getting right, what it’s getting wrong, and more about his work as the founder of Advancing American Freedom.

Vice President Pence warned Republicans about the bad politics of raising taxes, speaking to the pro-growth policies that were so effective in the Trump-Pence Administration and the risks of stepping away from those policies today:

“Republicans don’t raise taxes, Republicans cut taxes. There should be no higher priority for the Congress and this administration than to make the Trump tax cuts permanent.”

“What they will call a millionaire tax would be an enormous tax increase on small businesses in this country.”

“To talk about raising marginal rates, even at the top level, is bad policy and bad politics.”
