McConnell To Dem Senator: No One Is Allowed To Read The Tax Cut Bill Until After It Passes
1
December, 2017
Senate
Majority Leader Sen. Mitch McConnell told Democratic Sen. Ron Wyden
(Oregon) that he would have time to read the bill after it passes the
Senate. McConnell admission that no one is allowed to to read the
bill before it passes came after Wyden voiced his concerns that
Senators will be voting on a massive tax bill that will alter the
U.S. economy for decades without seen it.
McConnell tells Wyden there'll by "plenty of time" for him to look at the Senate tax cut bill when it goes to House-Senate conference committee to work out difference with House version.
This
is how far Republicans have gone to undermine democracy. It is not
surprising that same man who blocked a Supreme Court nominee is
passing a secret tax cut for the wealthy.
Mitch
McConnell and his Republican allies in Congress are violating the
legislative process undermining the Constitution, a crime against
democracy.
The
elected representatives of the people can’t represent the interests
of their constituents if they aren’t allowed to read legislation
before voting on it. Citizens can’t read the bill for themselves
because it hasn’t been publicly released.
Yet,
Senate Republicans are ramming the highly unpopular bill through over
the objection of the majority of Americans.
It
seems they are hell bent to get all that they can for their wealthy
campaign contributors before the American electorate vote them out of
office.
Bernie Sanders Warns That Republicans Are Coming To Kill Social Security And Medicare After The Tax Bill
Sen. Bernie Sanders
(I-VT) is warning that after Republicans cut taxes for the wealthiest
Americans, their next move is going to be to attack Social Security
and Medicare.
Sanders tweeted:
FACT: Under the Republican plan, a single mother making minimum wage with two kids would get only a $75 tax credit. Meanwhile, a family making $500k with two kids would get a $4,000 tax credit. #TaxDebate
It is without doubt that as soon as this tax legislation is passed, Republicans will rediscover their religion about the deficit and say we need “entitlement reform.”
