Liberal Forum

Notes in RED add more detail, which for what ever reason, was not specified...

1. Tax cuts and business incentives

• Extends and expands the 2017 Trump tax cuts, making most provisions permanent, including lower rates for individuals and businesses.
• $4.5 trillion in total tax reductions over a decade, with new breaks for income from tips, overtime, and auto loans.
• SALT deduction cap raised from $10,000 to $40,000 for five years, benefiting taxpayers in high-tax states. (an olive branch to OVER TAXED "blue" states)
• Child tax credit increases from $2,000 to $2,200 per child, though low-income families may not get the full benefit.
• Immediate expensing for business equipment and research is made permanent, benefiting capital-intensive industries. (Part of a plan to bring critical industries BACK to America (for national defense), and which yielded over $7 Trillion of commitments from foreign companies to build new plants IN America)
• Middle-income households would see tax cuts of $500–$1,500 per year, while the wealthiest benefit most; lowest-income households could see losses of up to $1,600 annually.

2. Cuts to social safety net programs

• Medicaid and SNAP (food stamps) face significant funding reductions.
• Medicaid work requirements: Able-bodied adults 19–64 in Medicaid expansion states must work, volunteer, or study 80 hours/month; parents of children 14+ included. (Is it SMART that Currently MILLIONS of able bodied people can STILL collect Medicare ??) 
• Eligibility for federal benefits is narrowed for noncitizens, with new restrictions and application fees for programs like asylum, work permits, and humanitarian parole. (DOGE determined that MILLIONS of Illegals have been benefiting from US Government programs... LIMITING that, is a GOOD thing for America, and Americans )
• Clean energy tax credits and subsidies are rolled back or eliminated. (Has anyone else also come to the conclusion that OIL & Gas are NOT as bad as advertised, are NOT going away anytime soon, and that MUCH of the "clean energy programs" are a bigger problem than Oil &Gas ?)

3. Border security and defense spending (One of Trumps MAIN Campaign Promises... after ALL the Damage Democrats did with WIDE OPEN borders)

• $350 billion allocated for border and national security, including:
  • $46 billion for the U.S.-Mexico border wall.
  • $45 billion for 100,000 migrant detention beds.
  • Funding for the largest deportation campaign in U.S. history.
  • Hiring 10,000 new Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents.

4. Federal debt and budget impact

• The Congressional Budget Office projects the bill will add $3.4 trillion to the national debt over the next decade, with the U.S. debt currently at $36.2 trillion. (BUT the CBO "assumed" 1% GDP growth (when 3-4% GDP is more likely), did NOT consider income from tariffs, nor other spending reductions not yet finalized... which could yield $5-7 trillion in actual national income... and if so, yeild a net savings & reduction of national debt, of $1.5 to $3.5 trillion)
