Chairman’s Report - March 23, 2018
Many pundits and spokespeople for the Swamp (they are often the same) shrilly denounce the recent income tax plan because it “unfairly” limits the state and local tax deduction to $10,000. Discounting that most of these spokespeople and members of the Swamp live in states with high state and local taxes, the argument seems to be that all of the residents of the other states should “subsidize” the state tax burden paid by the people who elect to reside in states with high state and local taxes.

Chairman’s Report - February 16, 2018
To a person who uses the logic of someone who works for a living and lives outside of the Swamp, any legitimate tax bill that seeks to reform the existing broken income/payroll tax system would eliminate tax extenders. Tax extenders are special tax benefits that have to be renewed, usually in one to three years, or they expire.
