Based on the average incomes in CD-2, and the percentage of taxpayers currently taking the standard deduction versus those who itemize, all of the data I have evaluated on both sides of this argument leads me to believe this bill will result in widespread tax relief for Nevadans. These improvements will not only put more money back into the pockets of Nevada taxpayers, but they will also simplify the filing process while giving our nation\u2019s job creators significant potential for reinvestment and growth.\n\n\u201cFinally, for the newborn deficit hawks, you either believe that more money circulating in the private sector increases tax collections \u2013 or you don\u2019t. Based on my research, and the history lessons we\u2019ve learned from the Kennedy and Reagan Administrations, I believe it. While only time will tell, I\u2019ve never been a fan of anyone\u2019s predictions regarding the state of our economy a decade from now.\u201d", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-08T22:19:19Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://amodei.house.gov/news-releases/amodei-statement-house-passage-comprehensive-tax-reform-bill"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.7404940444976091, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
