For the second consecutive debate, Elizabeth Warren refuses to say whether middle-class Americans would pay higher taxes under her proposed Medicare for All plan. And her rivals seized on it. An AP Analysis. By sppeoples. DemDebate
Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., speaks during a Democratic presidential primary debate hosted by CNN and The New York Times at Otterbein University, Tuesday, Oct. 15, 2019, in Westerville, Ohio.
How Warren handles that criticism, which was abundant Tuesday and is likely to escalate in the coming weeks, will be a central test of whether she can maintain her standing. Former Texas Rep. Beto O’Rourke suggested she was too focused on tearing people down. New York businessman Andrew Yang saidhas failed across Europe. Biden said she was being vague on the cost of her signature plans.
Minnesota Sen. Klobuchar said Warren’s obfuscating was all the more obvious because Bernie Sanders — whoseWarren supports — has conceded that middle-class taxes would go up, though he contends the increases would be offset by lower health care costs. Yet Warren’s resistance to spelling out what taxes would look like under her proposal suggests she sees political risk — both in the primary and in a general election — in going on the record in favoring a tax hike.“Elizabeth Warren is lying. Period,” Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel tweeted. “Taxes would go up on EVERYONE to fund this socialist government takeover of health care. Bernie admits it.
