Kerry Offers Middle-Class Three Times As Much Tax Relief As George Bush
Tax Day Brings More Evidence That George Bush Doesn’t Understand Middle-Class Misery

April 15, 2004

For Immediate Release
Washington, DC

As middle-class families across the country file their taxes today, the John Kerry for President Campaign released a comparison of the middle-class tax relief proposals offered by John Kerry and George Bush.

The side-by-side comparison shows that Kerry has proposed three times as much tax relief for middle-class families – a result that will come as no surprise to middle-class families that have been increasingly squeezed by a President who is out-of-touch with their needs.
“George Bush’s failed economic policies have put the middle-class in a world of hurt,” said Kerry spokesperson Chad Clanton. “The middle-class is struggling like never before, yet this President lavished tax cuts on wealthy Americans and stubbornly refuses to change his failed policies or propose any new solutions. John Kerry offers a new economic plan to change the direction of this country, which includes three times as much tax relief for middle-class families.”

According to a new Middle-Class Misery Index released this week, middle-class families are suffering more under George Bush than under any President on record. Yet with middle-class misery at an all-time high, President Bush has yet to unveil a plan to help. In fact, he has done just the opposite and pushed reckless proposals that have directly contributed to shocking increases in the cost of education and health care.

John Kerry recognizes the struggles of the middle-class. He offers real solutions to help families keep up with rising costs in education and health care, like $50 billion in tax cuts for college tuition and $177 billion in tax cuts to make health care affordable for all Americans.

Today’s side-by-side comparison of the Kerry and Bush middle-class tax relief proposals follows.
