Phil Roe, M.D. (R-Tenn.) released the following statement after voting for the motion to go to conference to allow the House and Senate to reconcile the differences between the two tax reform bills:\r\n\u201cToday we are one step closer to overhauling our tax code and seizing a once-in-a-generation opportunity to allow hardworking Americans to keep more of their pay. I am pleased the House has agreed to go to conference to reconcile the differences between the bills in both chambers. Comprehensive tax reform will give East Tennesseans a much-needed boost in their paychecks, increase job growth across the country and create a competitive tax environment for all businesses \u2013 both large and small. This pro-growth, commonsense tax reform bill is an incredible opportunity to improve the lives of all Americans, and I am optimistic Congress can get this bill to the president\u2019s desk before Christmas.\u201d\r\nNote: The U.S. House of Representatives passed its tax reform legislation on November 16, and the U.S. Senate passed its tax reform bill on Saturday.", 1, "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z", "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z"]], "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://roe.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=398258"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.1448038276284933, "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"}
