Ways and Means Committee Ranking Member Richard E. Neal (D-MA) released the following statement after House Republicans jammed their GOP Tax Scam through the House under the cover of night: 

“House Republicans just voted to rip health care away from nearly 14 million Americans, cut $500 billion from Medicare, take jobs and manufacturing out of their own districts, and hand billions to the ultra-wealthy. Cowering from the American people doesn’t change what workers and families get in this bill: pennies and higher costs. 

“Americans are asking for real relief: lower prices, affordable health care, support for their children and their families. But instead, they’re getting a textbook of broken promises that raises their costs and strips them of their basic needs—all to line the pockets of those at the top once again.

“This isn’t over yet. We’ll see if the Republican Senate has the same indifference to the people’s needs.”
