Mr. President, Trump and the Republicans can tell lies about what they are doing, but votes don't lie. Republicans just voted to say that there is no billionaire rich enough that they don't need a new tax break. So what about giant corporations? The year after Trump's last tax giveaway, Amazon paid zero dollars in taxes. The typical Boston public school teacher paid about $10,000. Can we agree that no billionaire corporation--like Amazon, Tesla, or Exxon--that makes over $1 billion a year in profits should get another tax handout? Yes or no? I yield, and I reserve the remainder of my time. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Idaho.
