Ted Cruz asks Treasury to approve $200 billion tax cut without Congress
"Two leading Republican senators are asking the Trump administration to approve a $200 billion tax cut without congressional approval, as the GOP aims to improve its economic approval rating with voters ahead of the 2026 midterm elections.
Sens. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and Tim Scott (R-South Carolina) will send a letter to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent on Tuesday urging him to use executive authority to reduce some of the taxes paid on capital gains — a change that would lower the tax burden on Americans selling stocks, businesses, homes and other assets, according to a copy obtained by The Washington Post ahead of its release. The senators argue the administration does not need congressional approval to make the shift, although some conservative legal experts and Treasury officials have disagreed with that conclusion in the past."
