Regulate tech giants more, but don't break them up

Q: Should tech giants like Facebook, Amazon and Google be broken up?

A: "I don't think we need to break them up right now, but we've got to regulate them more effectively."

Eliminate tax loopholes that only benefit big corporations

Small businesses are America's greatest source of new jobs and innovation, and they are critical to the 6th district. I started a small business myself, and I hear from small business people all the time who can't understand why they pay higher tax rates than the big corporations they compete with. Congress needs to reform the tax code to help small businesses and eliminate the loopholes that only benefit big corporations.

I will focus initially on reforming the tax code to help small businesses: We need a tax code that supports small businesses, enables them to succeed, and expands their payrolls to include more workers.
