Issues
Tax Reform
- Fact check: Affordable Care Act increases taxes, but the high class is getting a majority of the impact of these tax increases. Subsidies also cushion the impact of the taxes.
- Business and corporations
- Tax Proposal: Lower taxes on small business and big businesses, simplified tax code that is easier on middle class and families[4][5]
- reduce personal income tax brackets down to three brackets: 28%, 25%, 10% like the Reagan administration’s second tax reform
- fact check: Reagan’s 2nd tax reform wasn’t like this; it was broken into 4 groups (10%, 28%, 33%, 28%), making a tax “bubble”. Taxpayers after a certain income level paid a flat 28% tax rate [6][7]
- cut down corporate tax rate from 35% to 20% and change it to territorial tax system (tax only on earnings made in US)[8]
- 2% cap of filer’s gross income on total tax deductions
- double size of standard deduction
- double income tax credit for childless workers
- eliminate carried interest loophole
- estimate increasing number of Americans that don’t pay tax by 15 million, bringing the number of filers with zero taxes from 40% up to 50%
- claims this will help lower and middle class, but this will benefit high earners instead[9]
- plan estimated to cost up to $3.4 trillion over the next decade without growth
- businesses deduct new capital investments== Jobs And Business Policy ==

Immigration
Jeb Bush plans to strengthen the enforcement of Immigration laws, both internally and at the border through six proposals.
- A forward-leaning Border Patrol with the flexibility to deploy resources to meet threats.
- implementing new surveillance technologies such as drones sensors and radars
- improving the border infrastructure to allow easier access to border patrol agents
- Reduce the incentive for illegal immigration by decreasing the likelihood that they will be employed through an improved E-Verify system
- Identify and send home the people who are entering the United States and overstaying their visas or otherwise violating the terms of their admission.
- punish sanctuary cities, by withholding federal law enforcement funds
For those already within the United States Jeb Bush planes too instate a rigorous path towards citizenship which would require a background check, paying fines, paying taxes, learning English, obtaining a provisional work permit and a job all while not receiving government assistance.
