Pritzker Supports Increasing Taxes on Wealthiest

Share

Governor JB Pritzker is pushing for a change in the federal tax system. The Democrat Governor says he’s behind increasing taxes on the wealthiest Americans and corporations as part of President Bidens Build Back Better plan.

Pritzker says its money well spent to bring universal pre-K for three and four year olds, if it means wealthy Americans like him pay more.

“It is very important to try and shape a tax system that is fairer. I am glad the federal government is going at this. I am glad the President is. I think it is important for us to ask, especially after this very, very difficult COVID inspired recession, that as people are recovering, who should pay to help us recover more. Is it middle class, working class people, or is it people who can most afford it.”

The Build Back Better plan includes a repeal of tax breaks passed under the Trump Administration.
