Republicans to reveal whether they will advance tax hike on the wealthy
- This week, the House GOP is set to disclose whether their new tax-cut proposal will include tax increases for the wealthy, deviating from longstanding party policies.
- The tax legislation builds on Trump's 2017 law and is driven by debates over tax rate changes, spending priorities, and the increase of the child tax credit.
- The bill would raise the child tax credit from $1,000 to $2,500 through 2028, propose a state and local tax deduction increase to $30,000, and fund higher spending on military and border security.
- President Trump has privately urged increasing taxes on the wealthy, while House fiscal hawks push for deep spending cuts potentially up to $2 trillion to offset costs.
- The outcome remains uncertain as moderates resist cuts to safety-net programs and Democrats warn the legislation could harm vulnerable populations, risking the bill's passage in the House.
