"Take a look at the numbers", Kudlow said Monday at the White House.

Walz, who has released his taxes dating back to when he ran for Congress in 2006, posted redacted copies of all those returns on an official state web page devoted to "open government."

The Walzes were also subject to a phenomenon experienced by many Americans: Even though their total federal tax burden went down, they found themselves owing at the end of the year more than prior years.

A Reuters/Ipsos poll in March found that 21% thought their taxes were lowered. "This was not simply ー 'we're going to take all the tax rates and reduce them'".

After the law went into effect, Democrats played down those estimates and instead highlighted projections that most Americans' taxes are set to increase in 2026, after the individual tax cuts in the law are scheduled to expire.
