But it is unclear whether his administration would aggressively defend against legal challenges that seek to restrict access to abortion pills, including mifepristone, as the Biden administration has. Anti-abortion advocates continue to wage legal battles over the Food and Drug Administration’s approval of the drug, as well as the agency’s relaxed prescribing restrictions. Trump is also unlikely to follow through on Biden’s guidance that hospitals must provide abortions to women in medical emergencies, even in states with bans.

Trump’s tax policies generally tilt toward corporations and wealthier Americans. This is largely due to his promise to extend his 2017 tax overhaul, with some notable changes including lowering the corporate tax rate to 15% from the current 21%. It also involves rolling back Democratic President Joe Biden’s income tax hikes for the wealthiest Americans and eliminating taxes from the Inflation Reduction Act that fund energy measures to combat climate change.

Despite these policies, Trump has placed more emphasis on new proposals aimed at working and middle-class Americans: exempting earned tips, Social Security wages and overtime from income taxes. However, it’s worth noting that his advice proposal, depending on how Congress might write it, could give a backdoor tax break to top earners, allowing them to reclassify some of their pay as tip income – a perspective that most. extremes could see hedge fund managers or top lawyers taking advantage of a policy that Trump frames as designed for restaurant servers, bartenders and other service workers.

Trump’s position on international trade is to distrust world markets as harmful to American interests. He proposes tariffs of 10 percent to 20 percent on foreign goods — and in some speeches he has mentioned even higher percentages. He promises to reinstate an executive order from August 2020 requiring the federal government to buy “essential” drugs only from US companies. He vows to block purchases of “any vital infrastructure” in the US by Chinese buyers.
