Thanks to the Working Families Tax Cuts Act passed by Congressman Tom Barrett and Republicans, U.S. household income rose to a record high last year as the poverty rate fell to one of the lowest levels ever recorded.
Here are the highlights:
Inflation adjusted income increased to $87,460
Poverty fell to 10.2%
Hispanic and child poverty hit record lows
Women made the largest year-over-year gains in the male:female income ratio
"Congressman Tom Barrett and Republicans are delivering for Michiganders after years of Democrat neglect and Bidenflation. If given the chance, Democrats would reverse all this progress and cripple the economy once again." – RNC Spokesman Hunter Lovell
