Trump Budget’s Devastating Cuts to Pay for Ultra Wealthy’s Tax Breaks

Leslie is joined by Stephen Prince, a Tennessee businessman, founder and CEO of Card Marketing Services, and Vice-Chair of the Patriotic Millionaires.  The group is composed of hundreds of high-net-worth Americans who are committed to making all Americans better off by building a more prosperous, stable, and inclusive nation. They promote public policy solutions that encourage political equality, guarantee a sustaining wage for working Americans, and ensure that millionaires, billionaires, and corporations pay their fair share of taxes. 

Leslie and Stephen discuss President Trump's proposed 2021 fiscal year budget, which calls for significant cuts to domestic spending, primarily social safety net programs, and also projects extending the administration's signature 2017 tax cuts through the end of the decade.  The massive cuts would be to Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, SNAP, Cancer Research funding, Education, the EPA, and more.
