Data from the Federal Reserve\u2019s Survey of Consumer Finances shows that between 2019 and 2022, the share of families owning a business increased by 9%, with particularly large increases among Black and Hispanic households. The percent of Black households owning a business during this same period more than doubled \u2014 after falling between 2007 and 2019. These increases support wealth building in Black and Hispanic communities, as business owners report more wealth as compared to non-business owners in this survey. And under President Biden, we\u2019ve achieved the fastest growth in Black business ownership in over 30 years.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Meanwhile, Donald Trump\u2019s MAGAnomics agenda benefits the ultra-wealthy and big corporations at the expense of the middle class.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanityfair.com\/news\/2023\/09\/donald-trump-second-term-tax-cuts\">Vanity Fair<\/a>: \u201c<strong>Donald Trump <\/strong>Wants to Give His Favorite Corporations Another Giant Tax Cut in a Second Term: Report\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/business\/2023\/09\/11\/trump-tax-cuts-2024\/\">Washington Post<\/a>: \u201cAs <strong>Donald Trump<\/strong> widens his lead over other Republican candidates in the GOP primary, the former president\u2019s closest economic advisers are plotting an aggressive new set of tax cuts to push on the campaign trail and from the Oval Office if he wins a second term. <strong>Trump and his advisers have discussed deeper cuts to both individual and corporate tax rates that would build on his controversial 2017 tax law, which they see as a major accomplishment worth expanding<\/strong>.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>And the 2024 field has lined up to support Trump\u2019s extreme MAGA tax scam that lines the pockets of big corporations while hurting middle class families.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/video\/2023\/06\/12\/presidential-candidate-nikki-haley-energy-independence-is-key-to-national-security.html\"><strong>Haley<\/strong><\/a><strong>:<\/strong> \u201cWell, I think what I\u2019d like to see is us go back to what Trump had under the tax cuts under him \u2026 I was there.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/video\/2023\/08\/14\/watch-cnbcs-full-interview-with-florida-governor-ron-desantis.html\"><strong>DeSantis<\/strong><\/a> on whether he\u2019d keep Trump\u2019s tax rates in place: \u201cThe current rates that are due to expire, we want to keep those rates in place.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DNCWarRoom\/status\/1684928904539283456\"><strong>Ramaswamy<\/strong><\/a> on a suggestion to make permanent or expand the Trump tax cuts: \u201cI\u2019d go a little further, Larry, than that, to be honest with you.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/business\/on-small-business\/2023\/08\/02\/where-trump-2024-gop-candidates-stand-on-5-key-economic-issues\/e5ea54e0-3115-11ee-85dd-5c3c97d6acda_story.html\">Bloomberg<\/a>: \u201c<strong>Christie<\/strong> said he would extend the Trump tax cuts if elected.\u201d<a href=\"https:\/\/www.valleynewslive.com\/content\/misc\/Governor-Doug-Burgum-on-Vice-President-Pence-478179103.html\"><strong>Burgum<\/strong><\/a> in 2018: \u201cI believe in these economic policies, I believe the tax bill is a great thing.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DNC National Press Secretary Sarafina Chitika released the following statement:&nbsp; \u201cPresident Biden knows that small businesses power our economy, and he\u2019s always stood with America\u2019s small business owners over big corporations.
