Senate Debate on Small Business Tariff Exemptions: Edward Markey vs. Bernie Moreno

Published | Video Starts at 21:32

Because if you talk to any small business owner, you'll tell them the number one priority right now is for us to make their tax rates permanent. It's not a tax cut. No matter how many times my colleagues will say it's a tax cut for billionaires, it's objectively not true. This is permanency of the current rates. Only in Washington D.C. by the way, would keeping things the same be considered a tax cut. It's ludicrous and it makes no sense. (21:32–21:40)

CLAIM

Asserts that maintaining current tax rates is not a tax cut for billionaires.
