“we must be doing a good job when our friends on the other side of the aisle are racing to take credit for our accomplishments. To set the record straight, it was a Republican Congress that provided the fiscal discipline needed to balance the budget for the first time in a generation. We passed the first broad-based tax cut in 16 years and returned more dollars back to the American taxpayers. We are continuing to find ways to eliminate unfair taxes that penalize hard-working Americans. This Congress has worked to abolish the earnings limit for our Nation's seniors, repeal the burdensome death tax, and has extended incentives for hard-working Americans to save and invest in the future. This week the House will again vote to reduce the unfair marriage penalty tax which punishes couples just for being married. We have proven our commitment to secure a better future for every American.”
