‘Tax reform is all about getting America going again and growing again. It aims to take more money out of Washington's pockets and put more in middle-class pockets. And it represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to replace a failing tax code that holds Americans back with one that works for them. Passing this budget is critical to getting tax reform done, so we can strengthen our economy after years of stagnation under the previous administration.’

‘Under Chairman Hatch’s leadership, the Finance Committee has made progress developing common-sense tax reform goals. With further instructions from this budget, the committee will be able to complete its work and report legislation that promotes economic growth, that helps keep more money in the pockets of hardworking men and women, and that closes special-interest loopholes while preserving core middle-class incentives.’

LOUISVILLE, KY – Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) issued the following statement after Senator Susan Collins (R-ME) announced that she will remain in the U.S. Senate:

“Senator Collins lives up to her state motto, Dirigo, every day in the Senate. She never misses votes. She fights fiercely for her constituents. She brings conviction, smarts and leadership to every issue. Her decision to remain in the Senate is important not only for the people of Maine, who she serves so well, but for the nation as a whole.”
