Europe EditionMore than 8 in 10 voters support keeping Trump’s 2017 tax cuts: poll
- A recent poll of 1,000 likely U.S. Voters conducted between April 10–14, 2025, shows strong support for extending President Trump's 2017 tax cuts before they expire at year-end.
- The poll, commissioned by Americans for Prosperity amid budget negotiations, reflects bipartisan agreement despite some Democrats opposing the tax cut extension.
- A large majority of those surveyed—84% overall—support keeping current tax rates unchanged, with strong backing across party lines: nearly all Republicans, about four out of five independents, and roughly three-quarters of Democrats share this view. Additionally, eight in ten respondents are against raising taxes at this time.
- Brent Gardner, AFP’s top official for government affairs, remarked that voters support Congressional Republicans in focusing on maintaining low taxes and cutting unnecessary government expenditures.
- The poll suggests Congress may move quickly to finalize legislation extending the tax cuts and cutting spending, signaling political risk for members opposing the extension before the 2026 midterms.
