Senate Democrats are launching a website aimed at keeping a controversial tax proposal put out by GOP Sen. Rick Scott fresh in the minds of voters this midterm year, Axios has learned.
The website, GOPTaxHike.com, seizes on Scott’s proposal that “all Americans should pay some income tax to have skin in the game,” according to the press release and website mock-up obtained by Axios.
The website, launched by the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee , identifies Americans who would see their taxes raised under such a proposal, including some of the poorest groups. “This website will help voters learn how damaging and expensive Republicans’ tax hikes would be for them,” said DSCC spokesperson David Bergstein.The other side:
“Sen. Scott is a tax cutter — always has been, always will be. He cut taxes more than 100 times as governor of Florida and he’ll put his record of cutting taxes up against anyone in congress," Scott spokesperson McKinley Lewis told Axios.Axios on facebook
