There's Still Time To Stop the Tax Cut

As Jews, our mission is tikkun olam - repairing the world. This mandate informs my decisions as a lawmaker and helps me set my priorities. It makes it easy for me to decide whether it is more important to give a tax break to those who have the most, or provide affordable housing to those who have the least.
