On Tax Reform: Does not back tax bill; not enough benefit to middle class

Richard Cordray, a Democrat running for governor in Ohio described the tax bill as a "terrible deal" that helps the wealthy. In a speech Cordray told the audience about his efforts to help consumers and fight big banks while serving as the first director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. When an audience member asked Cordray to weigh in on the federal tax bill that was in the works at the time (it later became law), he said it wouldn't do enough to help the middle class.
