Revisionism and the new tax bill
Mr. Roskam: Once again, I enjoyed receiving your most recent election brochure. I especially loved the key bullets targeting us seniors.
The new tax law benefits seniors by:
• Protecting a lifetime of savings and hard work? Just exactly what have you done to protect my savings and hard work?
• Eliminating special interest tax breaks and lobbyist loopholes. Really? As I recall, your tax bill did just the opposite.
It's incredible what you can put in print … basically anything you want. I think the official historical term is "evisionist." Basically you revise history - any way you want.
Thank you for underscoring why I am so uncomfortable with your voting record and your Republican Party's leadership.
