“I absolutely love a person who has intensity on issues. I love a person who likes to get things done. I love it when we actually do something that makes American families better. The tax bill we passed last year helps American families. It helps this family with a taxable income of $58,000. I don't know how many times I have heard that the tax cut is a tax cut for the wealthy and the rich. That is hogwash. This proves it. A married couple making $58,000 in taxable income, if they have two kids, saves $1,600. That is real. That is significant. Frankly, it happened in large part because of the chairman of the Finance Committee, Senator Grassley. I compliment him for his work and his speech. He is exactly right. I want to help American families. That is the reason we want to preserve this option. I urge our colleagues to vote no on the Byrd amendment when we vote.”
