Rep. Ruben Gallego Statement on the GOP Tax Disaster

WASHINGTON, DC ­– Rep. Ruben Gallego released the following statement after passage of the House Republican's tax plan:

"Donald Trump has an obsession with winners versus losers, so I'll put it this way – the only winners under this scam are rich people like Trump and his cronies, while middle class families, students, and workers will lose ‘bigly.' The spoils of this tax plan go overwhelmingly to the wealthiest Americans, while the rest of the country is left to foot the bill.

"Don't let the GOP fool you – this plan isn't meant to give hardworking Americans the help they deserve. It's flat-out reverse Robin Hood – stealing from average citizens to further line the pockets of the rich."
