WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden is headed to his hometown of Scranton, Pennsylvania on Tuesday to talk about who he believes should be paying more in taxes (billionaires) and who should be paying less (everyday Americans). Biden’s campaign said in an announcement on Friday the upcoming speech on the day after Tax Day in the U.S. would “drive home a simple question: ‘Do you think the tax code should work for rich people or for the middle class?’ The President has made it clear what he thinks the answer is, and so has Donald Trump.” As inflation persists and Americans feel the sting in their pocketbooks, the Democratic president is working to convince voters ahead of the November election that he is still their best choice — not Trump, Republicans’ presumptive presidential nominee. Despite the healthy job market, a near-record-high stock market and a decline in inflation from its peak, many Americans blame Biden for high prices, polls show. |
