Claim: Former President Donald Trump claimed that Kamala Harris’ tax plan would raise taxes for the typical American family by an estimated $3,000.
Reasoning: Trump’s claim is based on the idea that taxpayers would face a significant tax increase if the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act were allowed to expire. However, Harris stated she would only end provisions affecting incomes over $400,000, not the entire law. Multiple independent analyses found that under Harris’ plan, the bottom 60% of earners (up to $107,000 in income) would receive tax cuts. The middle-income group would see minimal changes, and any tax increases for higher earners would be far below the $3,000 mark Trump suggested.
