Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) “is backing away from a proposal to require low-income Americans to pay at least some federal income tax, shifting his stance after facing criticism from fellow Republicans and handing an attack line to President Biden and Democrats,” the Wall Street Journal reports.
The proposal “now states that able-bodied Americans under 60 should work if they don’t have young children or incapacitated dependents.”
Also new in Scott’s revamp: making the 2017 Trump tax cuts permanent.
