Build Back Better not only meets long- awaited critical needs, such as clean energy technology, it is fully paid for, unlike the 2001 and 2017 tax cuts under Republican Presidents. This is because the largest corporations and the highest income Americans will pay their fair share, are not rewarded for shipping jobs and profits overseas, and will have more difficulty avoiding IRS compliance.

Congress will make history by passing this historic legislation. ____________________
