Democrat Admits Democrats' Budget Includes Largest Tax Increase

Rep. Bill Foster, D-IL. put out a press release blasting the Democratic leadership and their proposed budget.

“I can’t support a budget, from either party, that raises taxes on the middle class. This bill hurts families all across the 14th District by eliminating the 10-percent bracket for lower-income taxpayers, reinstating the marriage penalty and increasing taxes on small businesses and investments.

Foster’s admission contradicts Nancy Pelosi, who recently said on the House floor that “this year’s budget plan does not include a tax increase.”

At least someone on the Democrat side of the aisle will admit it. Congratulations, Rep. Foster.
