Senator Udall opposes tax reform bill as a hocus-pocus sham

New Mexico Senator Tom Udall attacks Republicans during final debate on the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act for doing nothing for regular families in New Mexico or across the country, kicking 14 million people off of healthcare, threatening Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security, and overwhelmingly benefiting the rich by giving huge tax breaks to their campaign donors. Udall says the plan would drive up the debt by $1.5 trillion in later take a hatchet the programs that working families rely on, not a responsible or fair plan, but a hocus-pocus tax sham. Udall says if Republicans had worked with Democrats, there could had been too big bipartisan achievements building on the successes of the affordable care act and a fair tax bill but how sad partisanship and politics got the upper hand. Udall says Republicans and President Donald Trump were being straight about what the plan means but not for the average American, that the Treasury DepartmentÂ’s one-page analysis, predicting a $300 billion surplus was built on unrealistic growth assumptions that no serious economists accept.
