“When Congress passed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act in 2017, I proudly cast my vote in favor. I supported those tax cuts then, and I support making them permanent today. I also support the newly proposed tax cuts that appear in the budget bill, such as no tax on tips. But the House-passed version of the budget bill also includes a $4 trillion increase in the debt ceiling, which should serve as a blinking warning light indicating that out-of-control spending will continue. If Congress fails to address its reckless spending, it is only a matter of time before an avalanche of calamities falls, including an inevitable future tax increase.” (06/05/25)
