AFP Dismisses Tax-Hike Chatter As Unserious, Unproductive
Raising Taxes of Any Kind Anathema to Pro-Growth Policies
Arlington, VA – Americans for Prosperity (AFP) today called on conservatives to stay aligned with pro-growth tax policies and rebuke the notion of raising taxes on anyone. AFP launched the largest effort by any conservative group to support President Trump’s pro-growth tax policies in 2017 and has again in 2025.
“Raising income taxes on any earner is wrong for America economically and suggestions Republicans will or should support tax increases after 4 years of Bidenomics shouldn’t be taken seriously,” said Brent Gardner, AFP Chief Government Affairs Officer. “90 percent of Americans believe now is a bad time to raise taxes. This is bad policy and bad politics. Republicans would be smart not to give it any more oxygen.”
The Protect Prosperity campaign, which launched in January, is mobilizing AFP’s grassroots army across all 50 states to reach millions of voters on the phone and at their doorsteps. The campaign is elevating the voices of Members of Congress who support pro-growth tax cuts while holding accountable Members who oppose this agenda, with the goal of extending and building on tax relief for American families and businesses.
