“This bill will be the largest transfer of wealth in our Nation's history, financed by mortgaging our children's future with a mountain of increased debt. It is not really even a policy. It is, rather, a collection of special interest provisions being sold on a false set of promises. It is not middle class tax relief.

They are right, and the Republicans are wrong.”
