This will raise taxes for a lot of families. The last Republican we nominated who raised taxes was George W. H. Bush. After he raised taxes he lost.
I doubt there are a “lot” of families with over $17,000 in itemized deductions. And eliminating deductions isn’t raising tax rates. It is getting government out of the job of picking winners and losers, of using tax dollars to bribe people into doing the government’s bidding.
Yes, and that really worked out for us, didn't it!
