Occurrences

My Middle Class Tax Cut Act would eliminate federal income taxes for families making $100,000 or less and gradually increase rates for the rich, ultimately making millionaires and billionaires pay a top rate of 70%.

Thanedar proposes a middle-class tax cut that would end federal income taxes for families under $100,000 while increasing taxes on the wealthy.

Evidence

The official homepage's June 9, 2026 press-release feed lists a new item announcing that Thanedar introduced 10 amendments to Trump's reconciliation bill.

This is a concrete legislative action inside the lookback window, but it is not evidence that the promised federal income-tax elimination for families under $100,000 or the 70% top rate has been enacted. It keeps the claim unresolved rather than delivered.

Thanedar's Tax Day 2026 release says he wants a more just tax code that gives major relief to middle-class families and is funded by taxing the richest Americans.

This matches the general direction of the pledge, but it is still only advocacy and does not show a delivered policy, introduced tax bill, or enacted change. It supports an unresolved status.

Assessments

unresolved unknown

Thanedar has publicly advocated for middle-class tax relief funded by higher taxes on the wealthy, and he has taken some legislative actions during the current term. But the provided evidence does not show that he introduced or materially advanced a bill to eliminate federal income taxes for families making $100,000 or less or to impose a 70% top rate on millionaires and billionaires, and it does not show enactment of either outcome. Because he remains in federal office and the record here shows advocacy without demonstrated delivery or a clear failed end-state, the promise is best judged unresolved rather than delivered, partial, or never.
