Bill Pascrell: “Health is so personal. But it is a good reflection of how we can come together in the Congress of the United States…”

I am proud to say that SAFER awarded more than $5 billion to departments to hire, recruit, and retain firefighters. These grants are amongst the most effective in the entire Federal budget. Fire departments rely on the Fire Administration…

I am glad the budget includes finally closing the carried interest loophole, maybe the worst loophole in the entire tax code.

So I am proud of our efforts to make big business and rich tax cheats finally pay their fair share. What the heck is wrong with that? And we have made progress.

And I am not giving up because if we don't do that we continue to send the wrong message to the taxpayers.
