Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders has a super popular idea on tax day — repeal the Republican tax cuts and raise people’s taxes.
We have a rigged tax code that has essentially legalized tax dodging for large corporations. It’s time to repeal the Trump tax breaks for the wealthy and large corporations and rebuild the disappearing middle class. #TaxDay

Today on #TaxDay Americans around the country are standing up against a Republican tax plan that looks out for the ultra-wealthy while leaving working families behind. pic.twitter.com/l7vSpMP2f9

Sanders also retweeted a video from Keith Ellison:
The Republican tax bill gives 83% of its benefits to the Top 1%. That’d be bad enough. But there’s more in there to hurt workers. It incentivizes corporations to outsource jobs. pic.twitter.com/WWpzKt2nB9

Though Sanders refers to the “ultra-wealthy” helped by the Republican tax bill, millions of middle-class and working Americans benefitted from the tax cuts. (RELATED: Media Bias Against GOP Tax Bill Misleads The Public [VIDEO])
