Key Excerpts
Sen. Banks: “Remember, this is a tax bill. This is about taxes on working class Americans. And if we don’t pass this bill, these Americans will get such a big tax increase. I’m the son of a factory worker. Everyone in my family is blue collar, working class. They’re all going to get socked by another $2,000 on average every year. They already tell me they can’t keep up right now, and the Democrats want them to pay more in taxes. The Republicans are the party of the working class. The Democrats are focused on screwing the working class with higher taxes and increasing the size of the scope of government, spending more on government. That’s what they care about. President Trump and Republicans are serious about cutting taxes on the people who need it the most.”

Sen. Banks: “Well, Shannon this is the biggest spending cut in American history. 1.6 trillion-dollar spending cut. Getting rid of the Green New Deal scams from the Biden administration and it’s the biggest tax cut in American history for the working class, families, for mechanics, for factory workers, for teachers, beauticians – the working-class men and women of this country who just gave President Trump a historic election victory. Republicans are going to follow through and extend the Trump tax cuts. No taxes on tips, no taxes on overtime. America is going to be healthier, and the economy is going to be stronger for it. Then we’ll move on to the next bill and hopefully do even more in spending cuts and helping the American people even more.”

Sen. Banks: “But remember, the Medicaid reforms in this bill are about work requirements and taking illegals off Medicaid. That’s what’s in the bill that’s what the Clerk is reading on the floor right now. That’s the truth.”
