On a gross basis, we estimate that Vice President Harris’s proposals would increase taxes by about $4.1 trillion from 2025 to 2034. After taking various credits and tax cuts into account, Harris would raise about $1.7 trillion over 10 years on a conventional basis, and after factoring in reduced revenue from slower economic growth, the net revenue increase comes to $642 billion. We estimate the proposed tax changes would reduce long-run GDP by 2.0 percent, the capital stock by 3.0 percent, wages by 1.2 percent, and employment by about 786,000 full-time equivalent jobs.

Let's bullet point that. After you factor in the effect on the economy:

  • Net tax revenue increase $642B
  • 2% GDP loss
  • 3% capital stock loss
  • 1.2% lower wages
  • 786,000 less jobs

Meanwhile, DJT's tax plans would mostly benefit the federal budget
