Brooks (R-IN05) issued the following statement after the House of Representatives passed The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act: “This is an historic day for the American people. Hardworking men and women have been burdened by our country’s broken and outdated tax code for far too long. And to ease that burden, today, the House of Representatives voted to provide Americans across the country with a fairer, simpler and modernized tax code that prioritizes the needs of families and encourages job creation throughout the United States. Relief is on the way. “The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act supports Hoosier families. It establishes a new Family Credit, which includes expanding the Child Tax Credit, doubles the standard deduction and retains popular retirement savings plans. Soon, Hoosiers will be able to keep more of their paychecks and better plan for their futures. “The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act encourages job creation and economic growth in our country, instead of incentivizing companies to move overseas. Small businesses and start-up companies need the lower tax rates this bill delivers in order to thrive and prosper so they can create jobs and grow our economy. “Today’s vote is an important step to provide taxpayers in the Fifth District much needed relief. I am proud to have voted for a tax reform plan that is pro-family and pro-business. I encourage the Senate to vote for tax cuts for all taxpayers in this country, especially those who need it most: low- and middle-income families.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
