WASHINGTON, DC – Today, Congresswoman Lois Frankel (FL-21) issued the following statement after voting against latest attempts by Republicans to pass a massive tax scam:

“The Republicans moved forward tonight with a tax scam that will raise taxes on middle-class families across this country and lead to severe cuts in Medicare, Social Security, and Medicaid. If the Republicans get their way, the ultra-rich and big corporations will get massive tax cuts at the expense of everyone else. Democrats offer Americans a Better Deal, one to invest in education, infrastructure, and research and lower the cost of things like prescription drugs and family care.”
