I voted against these tax breaks because they would raise the national debt by $2 trillion over the next 20 years with no plan to pay for them. Congress should focus on the making the tax code simpler and fairer. We should be making the tough but necessary decisions to ensure future generations dont have to clean up our fiscal mess. The House passed this bill by a vote of 318 to 109. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
