🧵💸New Ukraine “aid” bill would bring the total to over $173 billion, over $1,300 per American household and over $11,500 per Ukrainian household. This will continue to drive higher inflation and mortgage rates across the US – making every American family pay the price.

Tax reform can either be a weapon to redistribute and destroy wealth or a tool to create wealth and prosperity - good reminder that we should build on the latter, the legacy of TCJA.

The new "tax relief" bill follows the 2017 Trump tax cuts. But it sure doesn't follow in TJCA's footsteps. TCJA's individual relief: 95% tax cuts vs 5% cash for people who pay no income tax. The 2024 bill: <9% individual tax cuts vs 91% cash payments. But it gets worse... 🧵1/6

💸 The omnibus will add at least $20,000 per household to the national credit card (on top of the already $240,000 per household federal debt) – further driving up prices at the pump and in grocery stores – all to fund the green agenda and the woke Left.
