WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Senator Thom Tillis (R-NC) issued the following statement after the Senate Finance Committee released its tax reform proposal, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act:

“The Senate has taken a big step toward passing tax reform that will lead to bigger paychecks for hardworking Americans and stimulate wages and jobs. I look forward to advancing this legislation through an open process so we can fulfill the promise we made to the American people to overhaul and modernize our tax code. I urge my more independent-minded colleagues on the other side of the aisle to ignore the reflexive, partisan opposition of Democratic leaders and instead work in a bipartisan manner to provide much-needed tax relief to hardworking families.”
