Washington D.C. - In a surprise move, President Johnson announced a new proposal to tax the gaming industry, sparking controversy among Republicans and industry leaders. The proposed tax, which aims to generate revenue for the government, has been met with fierce opposition from both sides of the aisle.

"We must take action to protect the American people from the harmful effects of gaming," President Johnson said in a statement. "The industry has grown too powerful, and it's time for them to contribute to the well-being of our nation."

However, Republicans have been quick to denounce the proposal, calling it an attack on personal freedom and a violation of the Constitution.

"This is a blatant attempt by the President to raise taxes on hardworking Americans," said Congressman Smith. "The gaming industry provides jobs and entertainment for millions of people. It's not the government's place to interfere with it."

Industry leaders have also spoken out against the proposal, arguing that it will stifle innovation and drive companies out of business.

"Taxing an entire industry is not the solution to our nation's financial problems," said CEO of Gaming Inc. "It will only lead to job losses and a decline in the quality of games available to the public."

Despite the backlash, President Johnson remains steadfast in his support for the proposal.

"The American people deserve to be protected from the dangers of gaming," he said. "We will not be swayed by the special interests of the industry. They must be held accountable for their actions."

As the debate rages on, it remains to be seen how Congress will handle the proposal. One thing is certain, however - this is not the last we've seen of this controversial issue.
