As Trump and Republicans continue to debate how to proceed with tax reform, the LIBRE Initiative, a center-right social group connected to Americans for Prosperity, launched a six-figure advertising campaign for a fresh 60-second place on Monday.
The speaker of the ad says,” The Trump administration and their foolish laws left Latino communities hurting, leaving us with the highest cost of living in a century.” The 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act’s expire would raise more income for you and our company area, and put so many of us in danger of losing sight of the American vision.
The speaker adds:” It’s day Latino send a text to Washington loud and clear, no more higher fees, no more substantial government spending on the flanks of Latino people”.
The ad,” A Loud &, Clear Message from Latinos: No Tax Hikes”, is part of a more expansive, seven-figure LIBRE Initiative campaign called” Protecting Prosperity”, which includes digital ads, grassroots events, and what the group is describing as a” congressional accountability” strategy.
” Latino people have benefited greatly from the tax comfort provided by the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act”, Sandra Benitez, LIBRE Initiative’s executive director, told the Washington Examiner. These procedures have helped develop a more attractive and profitable market for families across the country, from lower tax rates to evolved entry to jobs and business opportunities.
The 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is poised to disappear on Dec. 31 and, with it, its standard deduction, specific duty rates, the child tax credit, the state and local tax exemption, the estate and gift taxes, and the qualified business income calculation.
When it comes to passing tax reform and Trump’s other priorities, from border security to “unleashing” domestic energy, the president and House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA ) would prefer one reconciliation bill, compared to Senate Majority Leader John Thune‘s (R-SD ) preference for two. House Republicans can’t agree on a plan despite having the power to control both chambers of Congress and having to pass healing legislation that only requires a simple majority, despite Trump’s five-hour visit to the White House last week.
Trump won last month’s election against former Vice President Kamala Harris, in part, because he increased his aid among Latinos. According to the Associated Press, Trump received 42 % of the demographic’s vote in 2024, compared to 28 % in 2016 and 32 % in 2020.
Trump’s subsequent administration has also been criticized for focusing on social issues, such as removing Spanish interpretations of national government websites, as opposed to economic policies.
The White House contends Trump’s strength professional purchases, among other administrative action, is the leader decreasing consumer costs.
