Queens Congressman Greg Mex said on Sunday that he would not withdraw President Biden’s infrastructure package, unless it included a federal $ 10,000 exemption on state and local tax cuts in 2017 under former President Trump.
“It should be repealed. I’m part of the caucus with Tom Suzy [calling for SALT cap repeal]. I want SALT [reform] To be there, ”Meeks said during an event at Queens Borough Hall, where he supported Ray McGuire for mayor.
Former President Donald Trump’s 2017 tax law limited the amount of state and local taxes – “settles” – that can be deducted when filing federal taxes.
“Salt Cap” primarily hit in more affluent, high-tax Democratic-leaning states such as New York, New Jersey, California, Massachusetts, and Connecticut.
White House press secretary Jane Saki said that a “potentially significant” cost could be added to the bill, which is expected to cost $ 2 trillion already, the Biden administration calmed down for consideration is.
The president of the Queens Democratic Party, Mex, also said that it is appropriate to support the rape. Jerry Nadler’s bill to expand the Supreme Court has nine to 13 members. He said that officials should wait for the findings of a study of the issue by a commission appointed by President Biden.
“I don’t want to go beyond the president. They put together a commission, ”Meeks said. “Let’s see what they bring and see if there’s a basis for doing something.”
“Just throwing it away will not help.” The Speaker of the House said that it is not going to reach the destination.
