More than 300 of the United States’s wealthiest people have asked members of Congress to block Republicans' proposed tax plan that would benefit them, saying it would “dismantle” social programs, “undermine” the U.S. economy and put millions of families “at risk.”
In a letter sent to Democrat leaders in the House and Senate Monday, the group of wealthy individuals criticized President Donald Trump’s desire to extend his 2017 tax cuts, which largely benefitted wealthy people and corporations.
