Matsui Statement on House Republicans' Tax Proposal

Washington, D.C. Congresswoman Doris Matsui (D-CA) issued the following statement on the House Republican tax proposal released today:

"Families in Sacramento can't afford this plan. It gives tax cuts to billionaires and corporations at the expense of the middle class. It drains our budget, just so Republicans can turn around and rip away benefits from middle class families, seniors, people with disabilities, and children who rely on Medicare and Medicaid for their health and economic security. And it guts the state and local tax deduction, which will cripple California. We should be working on tax reform that puts the American people first."
