Trump Proposes Overtime Pay Tax Cuts

Former President Donald Trump announced at a rally in Tucson, Arizona, his plan to eliminate taxes on overtime pay should he be re-elected. This proposal aims to incentivize workers and aid businesses with recruitment and retention. Trump emphasized that such a policy would benefit some of the hardest-working citizens, including police officers, nurses, and construction workers. This new tax cut proposal follows similar promises to end taxes on tips and Social Security benefits, and it comes after a debate performance that many viewed as lackluster. Critics, including the Harris campaign, have dismissed Trump's promises as desperate attempts to garner votes. The proposed tax cuts have been noted for their potential to significantly increase the national debt.
