"SALT is just an anchor around the necks of New Yorkers, middle-class New Yorkers, firefighters, police officers, teachers, government workers, and small business owners." Chuck Schumer criticized the SALT cap, emphasizing its negative effects on everyday New Yorkers who are burdened with higher taxes due to this policy. He highlighted that it was a direct consequence of the actions taken by Donald Trump and congressional Republicans, reinforcing the notion that this cap unfairly penalizes the middle class while favoring the wealthiest.
"We are calling on President-elect Donald Trump and the congressional Republicans to fix the problem they created that has taken money out of New Yorkers' pockets for years." Kirsten Gillibrand asserted the urgent need for federal action to overturn the SALT cap, positioning it as a direct issue of financial fairness for her constituents, who have faced significant tax burdens since the cap was implemented.
