Sometimes, people get gifts they don’t want for Christmas. Generally, the move is to dump them.
No chance of that with the GOP tax reform bill. There are no returns or exchanges. And no regifting.
Sen. Marco Rubio, in a Facebook note Friday afternoon, said he looked forward to seeing “President Trump sign the bill into law as an early Christmas present to the American people.”
“This week, as we have worked our way through the last steps of the tax reform process, I have been a consistent advocate for ensuring meaningful tax relief for working families is included in the final bill. I am happy to report after negotiations with my colleagues, the child tax credit has been significantly expanded to enable more lower-income workers to keep more of the money they earn,” Rubio wrote.
“Increasing the refundability of the Child Tax Credit from 55% to 70% is a solid step toward broader reforms which are both pro-growth and pro-worker. But there is still much more to do in the months and years to come,” Rubio added, without specifying what is to be done going forward.
Rubio is an “enthusiastic yes vote for the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act … a historic win for American working families.”
Happy Holidays.

This mf’er is such a spineless twit. First of all, he’s one of the least responsive congressmen out there – good luck speaking with anyone on his staff or getting through to him on an important issue. They do not care unless you whipping out your checkbook. More importantly, he amusingly thinks he has a shot at the presidency, and that’s the only reason he pretended to balk at the tax bill yesterday. He never had ANY intention of voting against it, and he got a meager increase in a credit while the rest of the bill screws the middle class left, right, and sideways anyway.
This Republican congress isn’t even pretending to give a d*mn about the American people.
