Mr. Speaker, the Trump administration has turned its attention to so-called tax reform, and the American people will face a clear choice. House Republicans want tax cuts for the wealthy and the well-off. That is a raw deal. House Democrats are fighting for tax cuts for working families and middle class Americans. That is a better deal. The American people deserve a country where, if you work hard and play by the rules, you can provide a comfortable living for your family; but for far too many Americans, that basic contract has been broken. That is why House Democrats are fighting for better jobs, better wages, and a better future. House Democrats are fighting for higher pay, lower costs, and tools for the 21st century economy, and House Democrats are fighting for a better deal for every single American. ____________________
