Motion to Concur on a Bill That Gives More Tax Cuts for the Wealthy and Corporations

Dec. 20, 2018 | H.R. 88

This motion to concur on a bill that gives more tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations—The Retirement, Savings and Other Tax Relief Act (H.R. 88)—is an excuse to cut critical priorities for working people such as Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, infrastructure, and education in the future. The Congressional Budget Office and the Joint Committee on Taxation estimate that H.R. 88 would cost $54.7 billion over 10 years. In addition, H.R. 88 includes handouts and favors to narrowly tailored and wealthy special interests. The motion to concur passed the House on Dec. 20, 2018.
