The following day, on April 15, Perry voiced his opposition to the potential expiration of tax cuts instituted by the previous administration. He stated that, should these expire, "the average taxpayer would see a 22% tax hike," and emphasized his commitment to fighting for lowered taxes, especially in light of "Biden's inflation crisis."
