Contributing sentiments towards policy:

54% : The bill will extend individual income tax cuts, as well as an increased standard deduction and child tax credit.
48% : Hardline conservatives and moderates have fought over Biden-era climate tax credits, work requirements for Medicaid -- the US healthcare scheme for the poor -- and the federal state and local tax deduction, which benefits Democratic states such as New York.
40% : It would cut taxes on tips and overtime pay, as Trump pledged on the 2024 campaign trail.
36% : The legislation would also increase taxes on university endowments' investment income and private foundations, but does not include some things that Trump has wanted, including increased taxes on hedge fund managers and the private equity industry.
36% : "Republicans [are] going to bat for tax deductions that will primarily benefit limousine liberals in blue states," posted Massie on X. "This carve-out for affluent people in states like NY and California will increase the deficit substantially and is a reversal of Trump's first term tax policy.
31% : "This is the biggest tax cut in the history of our country," Trump said.
18% : Trump has tried to appeal to moderates by saying that the bill doesn't cut anything "meaningful", just "waste, fraud and abuse".
7% : Donald Trump is increasing the pressure on House Republicans to pass his sweeping bill to extend trillions of dollars of tax cuts and slash government spending, after internal divisions threatened to delay it in Congress.
