Sen. Elizabeth Warren won't say if she'd raise middle class taxes to pay for her health care plan.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., took the stage at the Late Show with Stephen Colbert to big applause Tuesday night, waving broadly to the cheering crowd -- before sitting down in the hot seat to face questions about health care, one of the most pressing issues of the 2020 race.
On this question, Warren has a history of answering broadly about overall cost while artfully sidestepping the question of middle class tax hikes, on more than one occasion appearing to hedge. “Costs will go up for billionaires and go up for corporations," Warren said."For middle class families, costs, total costs will go down.”
"Your pay won't go up. You dodged that tonight. Jake Tapper kept saying how much are your taxes going to go up.”"No, no, no, different question. How much will your taxes go up?" Matthews said. “Why don’t you want to answer that question?”“I know that’s the answer you’d like to give, but will your taxes go up?”
