Trump’s reckless policies continue to hurt millions of hardworking families. His economy isn’t helping most Americans. Thanks to Trump’s policies, health care premiums are skyrocketing, gas and prescription drug prices are up, and real wage growth remains stagnant.
With each passing month, the Trump administration continues to build an economy focused on rewarding wealthy corporations at the expense of working families. Corporations have used their tax windfalls to line the pockets of their rich executives, not to increase wages for their workers.
And if you want to know just how anti-worker this president is, look no further than his relentless attacks on organized labor, which has long been the backbone of the middle class.
Trump and the Republican Party catered to the rich with big tax giveaways to the wealthiest corporations and the top 1%, all while insisting that we would see soaring job growth and bigger paychecks for America’s families. Republicans are failing to deliver on their promises, and the Trump tax is not trickling down to workers. It’s clear the economy still has room to grow, but we must ensure that growth benefits American families.
Democrats are proud to support policies that expand resources and opportunities for small business owners and entrepreneurs, while protecting and providing for the well-being of their employees.
When Democrats are in charge, our economy grows faster and hardworking Americans have more opportunities. If you want to create jobs and shared economic growth, you should elect Democrats.
-
- The economy creates more jobs under Democrats than under Republicans – including more private-sector jobs.
- We know that America can have unprecedented economic growth that produces better jobs, better wages, and a better investment in the American economy.
- Democrats have a better record on the deficit. Over the past 40 years, the only three administrations that oversaw deficit reductions were Democratic.
- Democrats are fighting for a historic $1 trillion federal investment to rebuild our physical infrastructure and create 15 million high-paying jobs in the process.
