Hardworking Montanas will be able to buy, like, one cup of coffee. Gee thanks so much. Goodbye universal pre-k, railroads, mental health funding, teacher raises, etc. This is what we traded for a single cup of coffee.
The millionaires are sure happy though! Phew!

I'm basing this off of the expectation that a family at $50,000 should receive back about $16. For a single individual making minimum wage I'd assume they're getting $5 at best. That's 1/6th of Yellowstone County.
Here's what kills me. Pre-k costs $600/month. Yet somehow the GOP has managed to convince a whole bunch of people that it's instead better for them to get back $5/year. Good luck with that $4,200 pre-k bill. This is just one issue.
If you're not a millionaire, GOP tax "cuts" cost your family tons and tons over the long run because they necessitate cuts in services. Instead of getting pre-k for the price tag of $5 in taxes, it will continue to cost your family as much as a used car. Which is the better deal?
@MTDems need to learn to tell this story both locally and state-wide. Cuts like this are a HORRIBLE deal for average Montana families. That $5 (or $16 for families) will cost most of us thousands in education and healthcare.
