Excerpt:
According to a recent poll, fully 75% of Hispanic voters think the country is on the wrong track. Even among self-identified Hispanic Democrats, 63% of those polled held that view.
The survey—conducted online by Public Opinion Strategies for Americans for Prosperity, a libertarian conservative political advocacy group—found that Hispanics, by margins of 90% or more, want to keep the current tax rate and are opposed to increasing it.
The LIBRE Initiative, an Albuquerque, New Mexico-based organization aimed at educating and empowering Hispanic Americans, analyzed the poll’s findings on what 300 Hispanic voters thought about economic issues, such as the economy, taxes, government spending, and the cost of living.
Among the key findings:
- 80% of Latino voters say their taxes are too high.
- 80% of them say it’s a bad time to increase taxes.
- Of the tax cuts in 2017, a plurality, 44%, of Hispanic voters thought cutting taxes for American families did the most to grow the economy. Sixteen percent cited increasing the standard tax deduction, and another 16% cited cutting global business taxes to enable America to better compete with China.
