Mike Johnson Opposes Millionaires Tax Hike

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) came out against a tax increase on millionaires, appearing to close the door on an idea that some Republicans have considered to pay for their massive party-line bill, NBC News reports.

Said Johnson: “I would not expect that. We have been working against that idea. I’m not in favor of raising the tax rates because our party is the group that stands against that traditionally. So there are lots of ideas thrown out on the table along this process over the last year, but I would just say for everybody, just just wait and see.”
