Carolyn Long supports “big tax increases”

October 16, 2019

Policy experts and economists are sounding the alarm about Democrats’ plans for socialized medicine.

Here is the damning reality about the government-run health care plan that Carolyn Long says she “absolutely supports:”

  • “Most of the proposals to move to Medicare-for-all would involve substantial tax increases that would affect most people. These are going to be big tax increases.”
  • “There’s no question it hits the middle class.”
  • “This has to hit the middle class.”
  • “71 percent of those with private insurance would pay more in new taxes than they would save by having health insurance covered by the federal government.”

NRCC Comment: “Carolyn Long’s socialist agenda will cost Washington families thousands of dollars, and all these families will get in return are longer lines and worse care at the doctor’s office.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Torunn Sinclair
