NEW POLL, SAME STORY: Americans Really Like President Biden’s Families Plan

As Republicans go to the mat to protect tax loopholes for the wealthiest Americans instead of investing in working families, voters have made clear that President Biden’s American Families Plan works for them. 

According to a new poll, the American Families Plan is supported by the majority of voters despite Republican talking points designed to mislead the country.
