Adams Statement Ahead of Republican Tax Plan Announcement

Washington, D.C.—Congresswoman Alma Adams (NC-12) released the following statement ahead of President Trump's announcement of his tax reform plan.

"It's long overdue that we have a tax code that is fair, balanced, and simple," said Congresswoman Adams. "American families and small businesses need comprehensive tax reform that provides an opportunity to rebuild the middle class-not another tax cut for the wealthy. True reform will only be possible if both parties have a seat at the table and thus far, Democrats have been shut out of the discussion. I urge my Republican colleagues to begin a bipartisan debate to reform our antiquated tax code today."
