GOP desires are clear

Thu., Dec. 21, 2017

Thank you Cathy McMorris Rodgers and all Republicans in Congress for making it crystal clear who you represent. Your tax bill cuts programs for the poor to give enormous tax breaks to the rich. How do you justify another $1.5 trillion in debt to make the rich even richer and the poor even poorer in the future? This tax bill proves Republicans have little concern for the vast majority of Americans and are primarily interested with serving those who paid big money to put them in office.

Thank you, Lisa Brown, for running against McMorris Rodgers in 2018. Your credentials, experience and leadership best prepare you for addressing the economy and issues of the 21st century. You are part of the tidal wave of change coming to Washington, D.C. in 2018 when thinking voters will decide to elect people to guide us to the future and not to the past.
