Support For Biden Spending Plans Evaporates If It Means Tax Hikes: I&I/TIPP Poll

Amid rising economic anxiety and weakening approval for President Joe Biden’s job performance comes another red flag for Democrats. The public does not approve of the president’s massive spending proposals if it means that taxes will have to go up.

The latest I&I/TIPP Poll asked, “To what extent would you support or oppose President Biden's proposed spending plans if you knew it would result in tax increases?” When asked that way, only 45% support his plans, with 55% saying either they oppose it or aren’t sure.
