Adding to Inflation, Democrats Have a Brand New Tax Hike Plan

According to Americans for Tax Reform, Democrats' new plan will crush small business and further destroy the economy. 

"Senate Democrats are set to introduce legislation that contains a $252 billion tax increase on small businesses...With the economy struggling and inflation out of control, now is the worst time to increase taxes on businesses," ATR warns. "This tax increase would be included in the Democrat’s trillion-dollar tax and spend proposal that is being negotiated by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and Senator Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.)."

"Democrats are proposing to expand the 3.8 percent net investment income tax (NIIT) which was created under Obamacare. Currently, the tax is imposed on individuals’ passive business income, including interest, dividends, annuities, and royalties. It is not imposed on wage income or nonpassive business income. It applies to taxpayers with modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) of $250,000 for married filers or $200,000 for single households," ATR continues.

Senate Republicans are calling the proposal "Build Back Broke." Hundreds of trade associations have signed a letter opposing the legislation.
