WASHINGTON President Joe Biden again reiterated he intends to raise taxes for the most wealthy Americans in an ABC News interview aired Wednesday, saying anybody making more than $400,000 a year will see a small to significant tax increase. He also pledged that individual Americans who make less than $400,000 which is more than 90% of taxpayers won t see one single penny in additional federal tax.
Biden said Republican criticism for his $1.9 trillion Covid-19 relief law is because the tax breaks in his plan go to the bottom 60% of the population while their idea of a tax cut is to give the Trump tax cut where 83% went to the top 1% of people in America.

CACHE, Okla. (TNN) - President Biden’s signature on House Resolution 1319, also known as the American Rescue Plan Act, set the wheels in motion for schools across the country to receive a total of $122.8 billion for the 2023-2024 school year.
Cache Public Schools Superintendent, Chad Hance, says his district expects to receive about $2.2 million.
“You know our district spent a lot of money on upgrading our technology so we could do our virtual school and so on so we plan on kind of taking that money and putting it back into place and taking it to our other needs such as text books or professional development,” Hance said.
