Millionaires Will Get $157 Billion In Tax Cuts If Republicans Repeal Obamacare

Millionaires Will Get $157 Billion In Tax Cuts If Republicans Repeal Obamacare
A new report puts a number on the windfall, which the rich will get while poor people lose coverage.
By Jonathan Cohn

Repealing the Affordable Care Act is going to be a windfall for America’s wealthiest families, even as it wipes away programs that have allowed millions of poor and middle-class Americans to get health insurance.

A new government report shows just how big that windfall is.

According to that analysis, which the Joint Committee on Taxation prepared this week and which the New York Times obtained, shows households with incomes of more than $1 million will get tax cuts that, over the next decade, would add up to roughly $157 billion.
