Wilson Joins House Republicans to Prevent Tax Increases

The difference between Democratic economic policies and Republican economic policies can easily be summed up by asking one simple question: ‘Who spends money better - families or the federal government?' While Democrats believe the federal government has a better spending plan, Republicans continue to put their trust in American families.

In 2003, House Republicans passed a series of tax cuts which enabled American workers to keep more of their hard-earned incomes each month. Throughout the past three years, these measures have tremendously helped all Americans by creating over 5.2 million jobs, reducing the unemployment rate to the lowest in three decades, and growing the economy at a record pace. Although Democrats have seen American families benefit from lower taxes, they continue to suffer from the same delusions they had three years ago. Their plan to increase taxes and increase federal spending simply will not help our country. Fortunately, the Tax Increase Prevention and Reconciliation Act of 2005 will give Democrats another opportunity to change their strategy and finally trust the American people with their financial future. Who will House Democrats vote for today - families or the federal government?
