President Biden and Vice President Harris have publicly stated they intend to sunset the Trump tax cuts, which will lead to the largest tax hike on workers, families, farmers, and small businesses in U.S. History.
On April 24, 2024, Ways and Means Committee Chairman Jason Smith (MO-08) and Tax Subcommittee Chairman Mike Kelly (PA-16) announced the formation of ten Committee Tax Teams, comprised of Ways and Means Republican members, to study key tax provisions from the 2017 Trump tax cuts that are set to expire in 2025 and identify legislative solutions that will protect Americans from the Biden-Harris multitrillion dollar tax increase.
To date, Ways and Means tax teams have held over 120 events across 20 states to hear directly from Americans who will be affected by the Biden-Harris tax hike.
