The former president called on Republicans not to “allow our hard-earned tax reductions to be terminated.”
Former President Donald Trump has warned Senate Republicans not to help President Joe Biden to pass a bipartisan infrastructure bill and called on them to maintain the tax cuts passed during his time in office. Trump referred to those negotiating the infrastructure deal as “RINOS” – Republicans in Name Only – and blasted Democrats ‘ “fake infrastructure proposals.” The White House and a group of Senate Republicans agreed to a $1.2 trillion Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework in June. The bipartisan bill would be passed in tandem with Democratic proposals to fund “human infrastructure,” which the party intends to introduce using the budget reconciliation process. Trump spokesperson Liz Harrington issued a statement from the former president via Twitter on Friday. “Very important that Senate Republicans not allow our hard-earned tax reductions to be terminated or amended in an upward trajectory in any way, shape, or form,” the statement said.
