ICYMI: Americans for Prosperity-Kentucky Hosts Tax Protest Outside Rep. McGarvey’s Office, Tax Day Events
Louisville, KY – Yesterday, in addition to Tax Day events throughout the state, Americans for Prosperity-KY (AFP-KY) held a protest outside Representative Morgan McGarvey’s Office in response to his opposition to extending the pro-growth tax policies of the 2017 Trump tax cuts.
At the protest, AFP-KY activists urged Rep. McGarvey to support the extension of the 2017 Trump tax cuts, highlighting how a failure to renew the legislation could on average increase a Kentucky family’s federal tax bill by over $1600.
Each of these events was part of AFP’s national “Protect Prosperity” campaign, which is focused on urging Congress to protect families and businesses across the country from crippling tax hikes by renewing the Trump tax cuts this year.
AFP-KY State Director Heather LeMire released the following statement:
“The 2017 Trump tax cuts have given our economy in the Commonwealth a significantly better opportunity to thrive. Opposing these tax cuts is in no one’s best interest. It will only hurt hardworking Kentucky families and the businesses who are still struggling after years of Bidenomics.
“Instead of opposing the tax cuts that have powered prosperity across the state, AFP urges Rep. McGarvey to change course and support renewing Trump’s tax cuts to protect Kentuckians from looming tax hikes at the end of this year.”
