Marcy Kaptur: “This job outsourcing tax bill of the rich, by the rich, and for the rich, well, if it walks like a duck and quacks like…”

On the recordNovember 15, 2017
This job outsourcing tax bill of the rich, by the rich, and for the rich, well, if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it must be a duck, and this duck belongs in a swamp, which voters may have thought they were draining in the last election. Well, folks, this bill makes the swamp wider and deeper, and the fat ducks will be even fatter and happier in it. I urge my colleagues to vote for the middle class, not the billionaire donor class. Vote ``no.'' Drain the swamp.
