#TaxReformTuesday: Rep. Warren Davidson
Rep. Warren Davidson
Dec. 5, 2017
Tweet - "What were Republicans working on in the waning hours last week? Not trying to figure out how to help families, not reducing the impact it would have on our deficit -- they were busy making tax cuts for the wealthy more generous."
Sen. Chuck Schumer
Dec. 5, 2017
Tweet - "The CR is a clean bill with no controversial policy-riders. It also includes a provision to assure states of the future of CHIP while a bipartisan reauthorization agreement is completed."
Sen. Mitch McConnell
Dec. 5, 2017
Tweet - "Hardworking Americans deserve relief. Tax cuts for middle-income families will allow them to keep more of their hard-earned paychecks. #TaxReform"
Sen. John Thune
Dec. 5, 2017
Tweet - "In the rush to get a crumb for small business owners, the Republicans are giving a whole big nice chocolate layer cake to the wealthy. It's wrong. #GOPTaxScam"
Sen. Chuck Schumer
Dec. 5, 2017
Tweet - "Last night, our colleagues in the House voted to send #TaxReform legislation to a conference committee, adding progress in our years-long effort to deliver real relief to the American people. I look forward to the #Senate voting to join the conference this week."
Sen. Mitch McConnell
Dec. 5, 2017
Scalise: "We're at the One-Yard Line"
Rep. Steve Scalise
Dec. 5, 2017
Tweet - "I told press today that the #GOPTaxScam was passed in the worst fashion of any bill I've ever seen. If Democrats attempted to pass this bill through the Congress, @HouseGOP would be a 10.0 out of 9.0 on the Richter scale in outrage."
Rep. Steny Hoyer
Dec. 5, 2017
Tweet - "By approving a short-term CR, we can continue the crucial functions of the federal government while we work with our colleagues in the House and @POTUS to finalize a long-term plan."
Sen. Mitch McConnell
Dec. 5, 2017
Tweet - "@BankofAmerica's decision to increase the size of their stock buyback by $5 billion is yet another signal that the #GOPTaxScam is going to line the pockets of wealthy investors, rather than raising wages for workers."
Sen. Chuck Schumer
Dec. 5, 2017
Tweet - "There is no evidence that #GOPTaxScam will pay for itself. Republicans are already using the worsening deficits they're creating to rationalize cuts to Medicare and Social Security."
Rep. Steny Hoyer
Dec. 5, 2017
Tweet - "Big corporations can smell the huge tax cut they have coming, and rather than raising workers' pay or hiring new workers, they're buying back stock and prepping huge dividend payments."
Sen. Chuck Schumer
Dec. 5, 2017
Tweet - "CEOs have made no secret of their intention to spend a coming tax windfall on executive bonuses, stock buybacks and dividends. This move by @BankofAmerica is hardly surprising, and is sadly likely just the beginning."

Rep. Nancy Pelosi
Dec. 4, 2017
Tweet - "In order to pay for massive tax cuts for the super rich, Republicans want to tax tuition waivers for grad students--does that seem fair, at all? More reason we must mobilize to defeat the GOP's reckless tax bill."
Sen. Patty Murray
Dec. 4, 2017
Tweet - "From tax cuts, to health care, to any other issue--it's clear @POTUS will leave no stone unturned in his quest make the rich richer, chipping away at tribal treaty rights, undermining efforts to combat climate change, & leaving middle class families behind."
Sen. Patty Murray
Dec. 4, 2017
Tweet - "Reminder: The tax bill @SenateGOP passed in the dead of night would cause 13 million people to lose health care coverage & increase costs--all so that massive corporations get more tax breaks they don't need."
Sen. Patty Murray
Dec. 4, 2017
Tweet - "With over 60% of the benefits of the #GOPTaxScam going to the top 1% of Americans, it's no wonder middle-class Americans are skeptical of the GOP bill. I urge Republicans to listen to the public and abandon this proposal."
Rep. Steny Hoyer
Dec. 4, 2017
Tweet - "Today, House Republicans will vote to go to conference with the Senate on their #GOPTaxScam, which will raise taxes on millions of middle-class households, cut taxes on the wealthiest Americans, & explode the deficit by $1.7 trillion."
Rep. Steny Hoyer
Dec. 4, 2017

Rep. Steny Hoyer
Dec. 4, 2017
Tweet - "#Senate Republicans believe that #TaxReform will jump start the #economy and help the middle class, while Democrats seems to be quite content with slow growth and little opportunity. @FaceTheNation"
