[Washington Examiner] As midterm election season kicks off, Democrats are out of the mainstream. They have developed a new strategy for countering popular Republican proposals: They deceive.That’s what they did with tax reform, and that’s what they’re doing now with the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act.
Despite rhetoric to the contrary from Democrats, we now know American workers are receiving bigger paychecks thanks to the GOP tax bill. The Associated Press recently reported that the bill Democrats called a "middle-class con job" lead to an increase in take-home pay for American workers.
While some, such as House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., mocked the increase as mere "crumbs," American workers told the AP they planned to use the increase to help pay for their health insurance, a Costco membership, or the arrival of a new baby.
As they had on taxes, Democrats also misled the American people about the pro-life bill.
