The Federal Tax Code: Medicare and Latinos
The “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act,” the latest tax bill from Congressional Republicans, would result in a massive tax cut for the richest Americans and big corporations, while providing little, if any, tax relief to working- and middle-income families.
Medicare—a critical program that provides health coverage for some of the most vulnerable, including seniors age 65 and older, and certain young people with disabilities or serious illnesses—will be one of the programs facing automatic cuts if this bill is signed into law.
