On an impactful anniversary, no less:
Congressman Mark Alford
[April 9, 2026]
This Tax Season, Americans Are Keeping More of What They Earn — Thanks to House Republicans’ + President Trump’s Working Families Tax Cuts 💰
💡 REMINDER: Every single Democrat voted against this legislation.
[….]
Some of the biting:
Do you agree with Trump that keep our military strong we can’t afford to pay for Medicare, Medicaid, and childcare? In the meantime, how much was your tax cut compared to a family of four with an income of $70,000.
The no taxes on overtime is bullshit. I worked almost $28k in overtime last year and it was a deduction of a percentage of my overtime, which after the time and a half and double time came out to be an $8k deduction which my accountant said might have changed my tax return by $1600, 20% of $8k. But I fell in the higher tax bracket so my return was about $2k less than last year. I’ve worked 7-12’s and paid over $3,000 in taxes in one week. So it’s bullshit rhetoric to get common people on the hook to excuse billions in tax cuts for the richest Americans at the expense of society’s most vulnerable people.
To clarify: 1. Re: No tax on overtime, the taxpayer can only deduct (exclude) the overtime premium, (i.e. the extra 1/2 for time and 1/2 from income) and pays the full income tax on the rest of the hourly pay. For example $6,000 of overtime would result in deduction of $2,000 from income. Social Security and Medicare taxes would apply to the full amount of the overtime pay. The states for the most part have not excluded the overtime premium so all of it would be taxed by the states.
2. Re: No tax on Social Security for seniors, there is no exclusion of tax on Social Security. There is a larger standard deduction for seniors which may eliminate the tax for some taxpayers, but would not eliminate tax on Social Security if the taxpayer has a certain amount of income.
I beg to differ. For the first time since I started working at 15 as well as being married filing joint for the last 24 years we OWED both fed & state this year.
Interesting because I am on Social Security and when I did my taxes, our refund was lower and we took the standard deduction.
How popular do you think the automatic enlistment is going to be with your constituents Congressman Mark Alford ?
Paid more than ever this year
Not the middle class asswipe were paying for the billionaires.
If it’s a meme. It’s gotta be true.
How’s those prices at the gas pumps and grocery stores? How about your health care costs? Your piddly little tax refunds don’t even begin to cover the increase in costs purported by the Republicans and their convicted felon fraudster.
If you grifters want to generate revenue for the state, make a new tax code so the wealthy pay the same (or higher) percentage in taxes than the poor and middle class.
Meanwhile Americans can’t afford health insurance, groceries or utilities thanks to Mark and tacos illegal tariffs.
So Alford, what do you think trump and hegseth threatening the Pope?
I got back $11.00
How about being honest? The no tax on overtime is misleading. On the time and a half only the half part is no tax. No tax on tips is only up to $25,000. The bracket with the biggest returns is the highest bracket. Those in middle class and lower have to pay more taxes so the higher bracket can reap the reward. I can’t wait to see who runs against you and if you’ll debate.
If that’s the case why are so many of my clients complaining they aren’t getting any more back than usual?
Do you support impeachment removal and prosecutions for war crimes by Trump and Hegseth? Tuesday Trump threatened the entire world with a nuclear strike on Iran ” Wipeout their civilization “. Are You for war crimes? I’m not and I don’t know any Missourians who support another forever war.Btw Trump and his family are enriching themselves from this war that COSTS US TAXPAYERS A BILLION DOLLARS PER DAY! are you for that too? Because you should RESIGN TODAY if you can’t stop supporting Trump.
Where’s my DOGE & Tariff refund $$$ Mr. Alford?? !
It’s going into the gas tank bud.
Puppet 🖕
Never mind the $2000 tariff tax on everyone and $1 per gallon increase in gas and good luck if you lost your health insurance.
Didn’t help me at all
🚨INFLATION SURGES: U.S. inflation surged to 3.3% in March as the Iran war’s energy shock rippled through the economy, with prices jumping 0.9% — the biggest monthly spike since June 2022. Energy inflation rose +10.9% (largest since 2005), while gasoline prices jumped 21.2% in March — the biggest increase since records began in 1967. Gas is now up nearly 40% since late February.
Tariffs season and
Rising costs of fuel
SEASON
If your GREAT LEADER had not imposed tariffs and started a war Americans might actually be happy with these tax cuts. As it is they are getting further behind because rising prices are eating up anything that was gained.
Middle class, middle-aged singles got hit harder than ever. Only telling half the truth makes a statement a full lie.
Tax cuts got eaten up the last time I filled up my tank.
My refund was less, so there’s that…
So after April 15th what do you have for the American people?
The same geniuses who think Trump, who dodged the draft five times, knows how to win a war also think Trump, who declared
bankruptcy six times, knows how to run the economy.
That’s what Trump Derangement
Syndrome actually looks like.
Interesting how each of you posts a different percentage. Perhaps you could get together and agree on which number you’re going to go with so your lies are consistent.
Lick those boots!
Retired and paid more this year than ever before. I dont want to hear your garbage.
Why the fuck is gas $3.59, Mark?!
You are the village idiot! Everyone is laughing at you.
Nothing but a Trump repeater
No!!! you voted for tax cuts for the billionaires!!
And you voted for gutting healthcare from the poorest people in America so Trump could fund his Nazi ice agents to terrorize Americans.
The National archives are calling Mark!!!
They have the receipts
Lying POS. Like people in the 4th district are so stupid they won’t realize how horrible you are making their lives
No refund, I owe. Bunch of incompetent tv personalities in the Cabinet abusing their positions on the taxpayers dollar. Congress is a sad joke, 1.3% – 2% of enacted legislation to date. Kegsbreath Secretary of War Crimes stated the draft will start again in December. So much for the “peace president” and putting America First!
Not my working family . I hate that you of all people are trying to preach to me. I am so done with the Republican party. I think you are disgraceful and will soon find yourself in hell where you belong.
Why do you keep embarrassing yourself????
I made the same income, same deductions…and, OWED MORE!!!!
You lying sack of turds!!!
And, what’s your SOURCE on this??? You just put some numbers up there with an arrow pointing upward! WTF???
You’re just pulling shit out of your little ass!
Paid more! What other gaslighting do you have Congressman Mark Alford?
My refund went down. Someone who earns more than me must be pulling that average up. I guess I just understand how averages work better than the fools who keep voting for you.
