“we all know that our sluggish economy is in need of a shot in the arm. As I travel my district and talk with constituents in Kansas, I am hearing one constant theme: reduce the tax burden on working families. They tell me that on their tight budgets, even an additional $100 per month would make a significant difference. I believe their request is reasonable. They understand what many in Washington never seem to comprehend: their hard-earned money belongs to them and not to us. They know how best to stretch every dollar to take care of their family. Tax relief for American families has always been one of my top priorities, so the plan that the House passed comes as a breath of fresh air. Under the House plan, a typical family of four in Kansas would see their earlier tax bill reduced by over $1,100. That is almost $100 per month. Best of all, our plan would create almost 1 million jobs next year, 8,000 of those jobs in Kansas. Job creation through tax relief, this truly is a victory for American families.”
