SCHAKOWSKY CALLS H.R. 8
"ONE OF THE WORST PIECES OF LEGISLATION I HAVE EVER SEEN"
WASHINGTON, D.C. -- U.S. Representative Jan Schakowsky (D-IL) today called H.R. 8, a bill to fully repeal the estate tax, a gift to the wealthiest Americans. She said that H.R. 8 is a special interests giveaway that, once fully phased in over ten years, would cost $50 billion a year. In Illinois, less than 2500 families will benefit from the full repeal of the estate tax.
