The law shoved so many goodies to the very top that on average: Households earning over $500,000 a year get 23x the benefit as middle-class ones earning between $50,000 and $200,000. Over 60% of households in MN-2 earn $50-200K/yr.

The 23x is based on
@jctgov projections, Congress's committee chaired by Rep. Paulsen (MN-3), in publication JCX-68-17’s 2019 table of distributional effects. https://www.jct.gov/publications.html?func=startdown&id=5054 … -

Dear
#mn02, this conservative estimate doesn’t account for those of us who used personal exemptions, have mortgages deductions capped and more. These same households are paying more in gas, in insurance, in tariff red goods too.pic.twitter.com/O7Sqtyssq9

False. Stop the lies. Real Wage is stagnit. Inflation is as high or higher than wage increases. That means purchasing power of ordinary people is DOWN.

You took $1.5 Trillion in debt on taxpayer dime and gave over 80% of it to million and billionaires. That’s corporate welfare. It’s the least conservative thing ever and you’re a disgrace for pushing it!
-
The worse thing about this is that ordinary people will have to pay back this debt in a few years and they’ll have gained nothing in the meantime. They tax bill really was a scam and it’s going to cause overall loss for people.

This chart didn’t help your cause one bit. Tax cut % of income to lowest earners .3% ($17.00) to tax cut % of highest earners 5% ($21,666). Tell me how that is working for us. I guess the lowest earners aren’t as hard working

Today inflation hit a 6 year high, wiping out all, of, any, wage gains. But corporations don’t care. They got theirs under your

Low unemployment means nothing with stagnant wage growth and rising inflation. Add in GOP sabotage of healthcare and a stupid trade war. GOP counts on gullible voters stoked by fear and resentment to keep on funneling wealth to the wealthy.
