Oh, by about $3 trillion.

In a new paper, Heritage expert Curtis Dubay reminds us:

Together, those increases raised taxes by more than $1.3 trillion over 10 years. Including the payroll tax increase that was also part of the fiscal cliff deal, taxes have risen by almost $3 trillion during President Obama’s tenure."
