  Increasing Taxes on Middle-Class Families Will Hurt Consumer Spending 
As we move into the holiday shopping season, the National Economic Council and the Council of Economic Advisers just released a new report, The Middle-Class Tax Cuts’ Impact on Consumer Spending and Retailers [ http://www.whitehouse.gov/blog/2012/11/26/increasing-taxes-middle-class-families-will-hurt-consumer-spending?utm_source=112712&utm_medium=topper&utm_campaign=daily ]. 

If Congress doesn't act, middle-class families will see their income taxes go up on January 1st. The typical middle-class family will see their taxes go up by $2,200 next year, burdening businesses and retailers across the nation.
