Stabenow Statement Following Vote on Republican Tax Bill Conference Report

WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Debbie Stabenow (D-MI) released a statement following the Senate’s vote on the Republican tax bill conference report:

“We need tax reform that puts more money in the pockets of the middle class, closes tax loopholes that send jobs overseas and supports small businesses and farms across Michigan—unfortunately, this bill does none of these things. This bill actually raises taxes on middle-class families and seniors and leaves Michigan families without health insurance to pay for huge tax giveaways for the wealthiest one percent of Americans. This was a missed opportunity to work together in a bipartisan way on real tax reform.”
