President Obama Forgets he said he would never raise taxes on anyone making less than $250,000 a year. But AFP activists want to remind him that he has already signed several bills that include tax hikes on middle-income Americans.
On the campaign trail, candidate Obama stated “if you are a family making less than $250,000 a year, you will not see your taxes go up.” As president, however, Obama proposed and passed at least 21 tax hikes. These included a 156 percent increase in the federal cigarette tax, within only 16 days of his administration, a tax that disproportionately affects middle-income Americans.
