🌽 The devil's in the details (and the tip receipts) - Cornhole Champions #36
The "One Big, Beautiful Bill" promises to help working Americans – but when you dig into the details, it's just another political bump-it: looks impressive from far away, falls apart up close. Republicans are celebrating "no tax on tips," but what does it actually do for Iowa service workers making $2.13 an hour?
On this episode of Cornhole Champions, Zachary Oren Smith and Amie Rivers dig into the truth behind the tax policy that expires when Trump leaves office.
Toss some bags at "no" tax on tips... merit pay for teachers... Catelin Drey is running in a Sioux City special election next week... and Iowa Rep. Lindsay James is a candidate taking on US Rep. Ashley Hinson.
