The Democratic National Committee unveiled a new website Wednesday to highlight what it says are the costs of Republicans’ sweeping tax and spending package, seeking to show how the law will affect Americans’ energy bills, health insurance coverage and paychecks.
The website, the details of which were shared first with CQ Roll Call, comes as Democrats and Republicans race to define the law, which is expected to be a focal point of both parties’ messaging going into next year’s midterm elections.
“The Trump Tax is the largest redistribution of wealth and the largest cut to health care in American history,” DNC Chair Ken Martin said in a statement. “While Trump steers the US economy toward a financial crisis, the Trump Tax is shuttering hospitals and nursing homes, skyrocketing energy bills, and exploding the deficit.”
