Case for voting NO on HR1 by Sierra Club: (Nov 16, 2017) House Republicans have passed a deeply regressive tax plan that will result in painful cuts to core domestic programs, to give billionaires and corporate polluters tax cuts while

This plan balloons the federal deficit by over $1.5 trillion. Cutting taxes for the rich now means cuts to the federal budget and entitlements later.
The bill hampers the
booming clean energy economy by ending tax credits for the purchase of electric vehicles and for wind and solar energy.
The bill opens up the Arctic Refuge to drilling, a thinly veiled giveaway to the fossil fuel industry.
