2018 NV Senate race: on Tax Reform


Dean Heller: Trump tax cut boosts job creation

Q: Support President Trump's tax cut bill?

Dean Heller (R): Yes "I helped write it!" Believes the bill "provides critically important tax cuts to Nevada's middle-class families, boosts job creation, and spurs economic growth."

Jacky Rosen (D): No. Considers "fraudulent" handout to corporations and the wealthiest. Opposes top bracket and corporate tax cuts that she considers at the heart of the bill.

Jacky Rosen: Opposed Republican tax cut to wealthy

Just in time for the holidays, politicians are trying to gift-wrap tax breaks for their billionaire donors and corporate special interests while hardworking families foot the bill. Desperate to score some sort of political win, Republicans in the House and Senate are ready to throw millions of Americans under the bus--so they can give the wealthiest Americans and huge corporations a massive tax cut. I was disappointed with the final bill in the House, and I voted against it on Nov. 16.
