In this episode, Rep. Rudy Yakym (IN-02) is joined by Rep. Nathaniel Moran (TX-01) as they celebrate America's 250th birthday and mark one year since President Trump signed the Working Families Tax Cut Act into law.
Yakym and Moran reflect on the transformation of Washington, D.C., from a restored National Mall and reflecting pool to a safer capital patrolled by the National Guard, and reminisce about touring the Capitol Rotunda and the lessons of George Washington's humility and selflessness. They break down the real numbers behind the Working Families Tax Cut Act, including 127 million filers using the doubled standard deduction, 40 million families benefiting from the enhanced child tax credit, and millions more taking advantage of no tax on tips and no tax on overtime.
They also expose the widening divide between the parties, citing a stark contrast in patriotism, with 90 percent of Republicans saying it's okay to love America compared to just 30 percent of Democrats, along with new polling showing the majority of Democrats now hold a favorable view of Socialism over Capitalism.
