Sen. Mark Kirk (R-IL) Delivers Weekly GOP Address On Preventing Tax Hikes |
Share | ||||||||||||
In the Weekly Republican Address, newly-elected Sen. Mark Kirk of Illinois says, "Last month, the American people sent a clear message to Washington: spend less, borrow less and tax less to put America back to work." Sen. Kirk expresses his disappointment that leaders in Congress have not heeded this message. "The current leaders of Congress should not move forward with plans that were just rejected by the American people. These leaders should not raise taxes and risk another recession. Instead, Congress should reduce spending and prevent another tax hike on American taxpayers." Sen. Kirk emphasizes, "Congress should set its highest priority on preventing the massive tax hike currently scheduled to hit our economy on January 1st." He also calls for "bipartisan solutions to cut federal spending" and suggests some ideas for tackling the "mounting debts [that] pose a clear and present danger to our future." | ||||||||||||
