Grover Norquist on New Tax Cuts and Trump's Economy vs. Biden's

New Tax Cuts Blueprint

• 📌 Senate Republicans have unveiled a budget blueprint proposing $1.5 trillion in new tax cuts.
• 💡 These cuts aim to extend President Trump's existing tax cuts, which are beginning to phase out.
• 🎯 A significant portion of the new cuts is intended to recoup the fading benefits of the Trump tax cuts, such as faster depreciation and 100% expensing for business investments.
• 🏗️ There's a strong discussion about including manufacturing buildings in the 100% expensing provision, expanding it beyond just equipment.
• ♾️ The goal is to extend the Trump tax cuts permanently by building from current policy rather than current law.

Tax Cuts for Individuals and Contractors

• 💰 The new tax cuts are expected to include a no tax on tips provision, potentially benefiting both employees and independent contractors like Uber drivers.
