Cut taxes; we'll take a lot of money with tariffs on imports

TW: You're not going to pay for it with these tariffs. That's just adding another $4,000 on the family and taking less. So not only do they not get the money to pay for that, they're $4,000 in the hole. That's Wharton School. That's his alma mater. When I go to businesses, sure, they'll talk about taxes sometimes. But they will lead with childcare and they will lead with housing, because we know the problem is we need more workers because our economy is growing, but we need the workforce.

Raise taxes on companies that ship jobs overseas

Taxes: Should corporations and wealthier individuals pay more or less taxes?
• Tim Ryan (D): More. Opposed the $1.5 trillion 2017 tax bill, which cut corporate tax rates and top-bracket income taxes. Increase taxes on billionaires while increasing the child tax credit for working families. "A tax system that lets the super-rich off the hook while working families are struggling just to stay afloat is a system that's broken."
• J.D. Vance (R): Mixed on corporations, less for individuals. "Let's cut the taxes of the companies that invest in our country. But... raise taxes on companies that ship jobs overseas and use their money to fund anti-American radical movements." Calls Ryan's push for middle class tax cuts "a gimmick," criticizes his opposing 2017 tax cuts.
