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.
