Biden Administration Advocates for Tax Reforms as 2017 Cuts Set to Expire

The White House emphasizes tax equity, proposing increased rates for the wealthy and corporations to counterbalance expiring Trump-era cuts.

Lael Brainard, White House economic advisor, underscores the need for fiscal responsibility ahead of potential tax increases for the majority of Americans.
The expiring tax cuts could add $4.6 trillion to the national debt over the next decade if fully extended, according to the Congressional Budget Office.
President Biden commits to maintaining tax cuts for those earning under $400,000, while proposing hikes for top earners to fund further middle-class relief.
Trump argues that extending his tax cuts is crucial for economic stability, opposing Biden's plans which he claims would lead to widespread job losses.
Debate intensifies over fiscal policy as both parties prepare for the upcoming presidential election, with significant implications for U.S. economic health.
