States Push for New Taxes on Rich to Replace Trump-GOP Budget Cuts to Vital Social Safety Net Programs

Interview with Kamolika Das, local policy director with the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy, conducted by Scott Harris.

Kamolika Das talks about a current nationwide effort to raise revenue in states to replace billions of dollars in vital local and state funding for social safety net programs that were lost in last year’s Trump-GOP budget mega-bill that dramatically cut social programs while giving away huge tax cuts for profitable corporations and the rich.
