Political Quotes

“I thank the gentleman. I was attempting to ask the gentleman from Georgia to yield so I could ask him a question: What part of what I said about the family of four earning $88,000 and getting a bonus of $250, and their exposure then to $4,460 in taxes was untrue? He was on a diatribe of his talking points about small businesses. We understand small businesses, the burden that was placed there. We are trying to remove that from them, but not to place it on the backs of the middle class. I understand he wanted to remove the burden from small business, but to place it on the backs of the middle class, that was the question I've asked. And by the way, I haven't heard one colleague from the other side of the aisle refute what I said about that family of four. Not one person has stood up and said, you're wrong, Mr. Crowley. That will not take place; that potential will not take place if this bill passes. The silence is deafening from the other side. They know it's a tax increase on the middle class, Mr. Polis.”
