Leader McCarthy's Statement on Democrats' Scheme to Increase Taxes and Expand IRS

Statement

Date: Aug. 7, 2022
Location: Washington, DC

House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy (CA-23) released the following statement on the Democrats' Tax and Spend bill:

"Congress should be focusing on our country's call to answer the rising price of gas, groceries, and just about everything else we buy. Instead, moments ago, Senate Democrats and Vice President Harris voted on a 700-page, half a trillion spending spree that would raise taxes during a recession, punish small businesses, hire 87,000 IRS bureaucrats to harass the middle class, and increase inflation. Democrats have failed to listen to the American people, and they have no plan to fix the problems they caused. When this bill comes to the House, I urge everyone to vote No."
