On the recordNovember 30, 2017
this motion is pretty simple. If corporations get a windfall because of a corporate tax break, the workers should benefit as well. Worker wages should go up. Let me read directly from the motion itself. We want to ensure that ``any tax windfall to profitable corporations . . . goes to . . . worker wages.'' Aggregate worker wages would increase by an amount equal to the increases in executive compensation, stock buy backs, and dividends to shareholders. It is that simple. I urge a ``yes'' vote. I wish to thank my colleagues for their support: Senators Stabenow, Whitehouse, Van Hollen, Udall, and Baldwin. I yield the floor. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The question is on agreeing to the Casey motion to commit.
