43% : But a smaller price tag will also mean big changes on the tax side as well because Democrats are unlikely to raise taxes by more than they need to defray the cost of their plans.
43% : Raising $1.5 trillion or so in taxes, to cover that spending, should not be a heavy lift for most Democrats -- especially given the overlap between a recent proposal by Manchin and a tax plan approved last month by the House Ways and Means Committee.
