The middle class forms the foundation of our economy, yet too many families struggle with rising expenses, stagnant incomes, and financial uncertainty.
To tackle these challenges, we need a comprehensive economic strategy that uplifts working families and ensures the wealthiest pay their fair share.
By eliminating tax loopholes exploited by billionaires and large corporations—like carried interest and offshore tax shelters—we can raise funds to support affordable childcare, reduce student debt, and invest in infrastructure that creates well-paying jobs. At the same time, we must provide direct relief to middle-class households by expanding the Child Tax Credit, increasing the minimum wage, and lowering healthcare costs.
Investing in education and workforce training will empower workers to succeed in a rapidly evolving economy. Though some warn that higher taxes on the wealthy could stifle growth, history tells a different story: fair tax policies strengthen the middle class, boost consumer spending, and ultimately benefit businesses. The true threat to economic growth is growing inequality.
This plan centers on fairness and opportunity. The middle class drives innovation and demand—and they deserve policies that reward hard work, not just wealth.
It’s time to create an economy that works for everyone.
