Speech #1140070573

The $622 billion advertised cost will balloon even further to $2 trillion over the next two decades. Certainly. many of the provisions in this package are good. but President Obama and Congress need to recognize there are limits. The bill also extends costly tax credits that are scored rightly by the Congressional Budget Office as support payments. not tax deductions. and allows tax credits. earned income tax credits. for illegal aliens favored by President Obamas Executive amnesty and the additional income tax credit. which allows billions to go to illegal aliens. These provisions are unwise and need serious reform before extending. There are indeed some good provisions in this bill.
