White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt introduced President Trump’s latest tax plan, highlighting major relief for the middle class while limiting tax breaks for the wealthy. The proposal includes eliminating taxes on tips, Social Security benefits, and overtime pay, aiming to boost take-home income for workers. Additionally, it seeks to close loopholes such as the carried interest provision that benefits hedge fund managers.

A key feature of the plan is the extension of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, ensuring continued lower tax rates. It also proposes reducing the corporate tax rate to 15%, a move designed to stimulate business growth and job creation. However, the plan has sparked intense debate, facing resistance from Democrats who argue it could worsen the deficit. Some Republicans are also divided over its fiscal impact.

With concerns over national debt and fairness in taxation, the proposal is expected to undergo a challenging legislative process. Lawmakers will weigh the potential economic benefits against long-term fiscal consequences. As Congress deliberates, the plan’s success will depend on negotiations and compromises to gain sufficient bipartisan support.
