The Constitutional Conservative: Biden hands out trillions to states and cities but says neither may lower taxes as a condition of accepting your tax dollars coming back to you.
TX AG Ken Paxton Sued the Biden Administration for barring tax reductions.
Analysis:
The Biden Administration is desperate to hand out trillions of your tax dollars to cities and states under the guise of COVID stimulus funding. Yet to receive your trillions in taxes back to your pocket, Biden has forbidden any tax reductions by state or city entities.
Constitutional scholars have mixed opinions, but many believe the federal government prohibition from directly or indirectly using the COVID relief funds to offset taxes violates the constitution.
“This is yet another attempt by the federal government to unlawfully exert control over how sovereign states operate,” said Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton. “While hiding behind a deceptively friendly name, the Act effectively removes Texas’ ability to lower taxes while granting Secretary of the Treasury Janet Yellen power to take back federal aid funds if they disagree with state tax policies.”
Conclusion:
The Biden Administration seeks to spend more of our own money than ANY president in our nation’s history. In doing so, Biden hopes to fund his leftist friends and empower their organizations to elect more liberals while barring states such as Texas from lowering their taxes if they “accept” their tax dollars coming back to them in the form of COVID relief. This is simply another abuse of power and financial manipulation by ruthless liberals seeking to secure their political objectives, regardless of the harm to others or constitutional violations.
