Press Release

Sacramento, CA – Congressman Ami Bera (D-CA) released the following statement on the Republican tax bill that he voted against today:

"Middle class families deserve tax reform that helps them get ahead. This bill would eliminate critical deductions that help Americans save for the future, saddle the next generation with mountains of debt, and make it harder for families to recover when unexpected tragedy hits. That's not good policy. Sacramento County families pay their fair share of taxes and are counting on us to put politics aside and work in their best interests - this bill falls short. Californians deserve better from Washington."
