In this blogcast, Burnes Center for Social Change Senior Fellow Seth Harris is joined by Brendan Duke, the Senior Director for Federal Budget Policy at CBPP, and Amy Hanauer, the Executive Director at ITEP, to discuss Trump’s tax-and-spending bill and its impact on workers and worker power. Watch now to hear these tax experts dissect and evaluate the bill, specifically the tax cuts, and how it will disproportionately benefit wealthy individuals and corporations. Also, hear Hanauer and Duke advocate for a more progressive tax system that adequately supports working individuals and families.
