let me finish, that s the progressive tax increases, nobody under 400,000 gets a tax bump, the progressive tax bumps in this bill more than pay for the reconciliation plan. and that has been confirmed by the official scorekeeper on the revenue side, along with our own u.s. treasury. why isn t that good enough for the moderates in the house? i can t speak for the moderates, and you know, precisely what they re waiting for. some of this news is breaking as i m talking to you. i haven t gotten a readout from it yet. what i can tell you is what the president has said all along, as this plan will not add to the deficit, and we are getting official scores confirming that he s correct about that. jared bernstein, we really appreciate your time. thank you so much for being on. great talking to you. you too. more than half of the states all led by gop attorneys general say that they will fight the biden administration s vaccine mandate in court. we ll tell you what that will look
we who will sacrifice our seats in the 2018 election salute you. it s ridiculous. if you have to explain t the bi bill is not selling itself. the american people want donald trump to fix roads, lower taxes and keep the country safe if that s what this bill ends up helping with, great. no one believes that now. it s unlikely they can sell it. amy, in places and districts where you live, people will not be able to be shielded from the fact that you have jared kushner who inherited millions from his daddy, now gets a 5 million to $12 million tax bump. donald trump reaping 4$4.5 million. wilbur ross getting 4 million. linda mcmahon gets millions. betsy devos gets millions, tillerson gets millions. when people see those millions compared to 18 bucks, how do
obamacare where in many cases, over 100% increases, it is unaffordable. it doesn t work. bill clinton said it. maybe he shouldn t have said it during the campaign. he said it. it is unaffordable. it doesn t work. it has been crazy. obamacare doesn t just touch those, all have felt the effects. what would dismantling mean for you? 58 million americans would be uninsured by 2019. fewer people may enroll after the tax credits that help pay for premiums disappear. that means tax bump for many low and middle class households. with those with work-based insurance could see a rising cost. the average family pays $4400 less. seniors pay $700 less. obamacare introduced cost saving measures like free preventive care. republicans have promised to keep that last measure in place.
mitch mcconnell are able to get their proposals past and they ve left the senate to build a compromise plan and as you can see, the clock continues to tick, tick, tick, time running out. editor mark murray live in d.c. once again and mark, we should know here that the sky won t actually fall if the deal isn t passed by tuesday, but for a moment here, let s talk about the worst-case scenario. americans earning up to their 20,000 a year and they ll see their taxes go up about $412. next bracket could pay $1,000 extra to uncle sam. people making 40 to $65,000 get a $2,000 tax hike and anyone, would see a $14,000 tax bump. where else would americans see the sting? talk to me about medicare and unemployment benefits. this whole metaphor we ve been using about a fiscal cliff
are actually talking in many cases about struggling small businesses whose margin isn t a million dollars but their gross income is a million dollars. i agree with you at the level of $250,000. a lot of people live in jersey with a house worth $600,000 or $700,000 and kids in college. if they have two kids in college they are poor. and probably in debt, absolutely. what if you raise that level, though, what if you make it the governor says the president says millionaires and billionaires will benefit from the continued tax cut. i say make it millionaires. not the people that make between 250,000 and a million. a million up. how can you say that a 4% tax bump is going to cripple their ability to spend and stimulate the economy? i don t know that it is going to be the end of the world. that is four times more than you ever earned until you went into the private sector.
