Rounds, Jon Scott Talk One Big Beautiful Bill

I think what Democrats are suggesting, and the reason why they're talking about this, is that they're saying that if you tax to the American people more, which is what exactly would happen if we don't pass this bill, that The average American family would pay about $2,500 more per family [if the bill is not passed]. Now, if you want to look at it that way, then, yeah, if you want to do what Democrats want to do, you'll increase the taxes on American families by $2,500 per year directly back in. (04:14–04:36)

CLAIM

Asserts that not passing the bill would result in a $2,500 tax increase per family.
