"Democrats want us to believe they care about the little guy, the working class, the average American. Yet. somehow, their policies always seem to hurt the people they claim to help and enrich the elites who fund their campaigns. On the campaign trail last year, President Trump proposed his No Tax on Tips plan, and the left
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent issued a blistering statement on Wednesday that exposed how far these states will go to block relief simply because it came from President Donald Trump.
Bessent described the OBBB as “the most pro-worker, pro-family legislation in a generation.” The law put real money back into the hands of people who actually earn it. No Tax on Tips for servers and bartenders. No Tax on Overtime for linemen and factory workers. A badly needed deduction for seniors who rely on Social Security. These are concrete victories for people, many of whom live paycheck to paycheck.
Yet, the Democrat governors of Colorado, New York, Illinois, and the District of Columbia decided their residents should not share the same wins. Bessent called their defiance “a blatant act of political obstructionism” and said these states are “deliberately blocking their own residents from receiving these historic benefits at the state level.” He laid out the consequences in plain terms. Governors and legislatures in these states are squeezing families harder and taking more from workers."
