    We have to get the economy growing again, but we have to deal w/ half a trillion dollars in overspending too. We can do both. #TaxReformpic.twitter.com/aJBozzRiai

        You live in a parallel universe that is full of doublespeak, distortion, and political expediency. Your constituents are hardworking Oklahoma families and not corporations. Your #taxgrift is robbery.

        Exactly. Cutting Medicare used to be political suicide. Now we have to call DC and beg our reps not to do the unthinkable. Cheers, P.

        The economy is growing. Worry about the deficit and Healthcare for lower income, disabled, elderly, and veterans, please. Also, deficit. Definitely no $ for a worthless wall.

        You know what happened the last two times GOP controlled WH, House & Senate? Massive deregulation and tax cuts. And, oh #greatdepression & #greatrecession . Do you want your legacy to add a 3rd #?

        The economy isn’t growing? It’s growing great for business owners and stock holders, too bad the middle class doesn’t encompass much of that. Make tax reform about the middle class and we can talk

        Start with tRump's golfing. His spawn traveling with 10 security cars in USA. All the non stop jet setting across the globe. Make Melania payback all that security money for not moving sooner. Stop WH staff staff from taking private jets.

        Trickle down won’t work Senator. When you build a home you always start with the foundation not the roof. But yes we need reform people like me pay with no love or kindness or break and people like Trump steal and manipulate the system.

        The ACA repeal failed multiple times, yet your ilk are inserting into the tax reform bill as a Trojan horse. Also, Oklahomans are not the ones who will benefit from this tax bill. Put your constituents needs first; that is your duty!

        Your #TaxReform is a #TaxScam. A good middle class tax cut that would spur the economy is to triple the standard deduction and leave everything else alone. The masses would have a little extra to create the demand that companies want to see before they expand.

        You need to vote NO, sir, on a tax bill that will give tax breaks to corporations. WE WANT ALL OUR DEDUCTIONS!! Corporate tax cuts will leave $ at the top. No investments in jobs or income raises for existing employees. It's a payout to rich Congressional donors. Shameful!

        The corporate money giveaway or corporate welfare is what this is "tax bill" is, It's laughable seeing through the lies. This is corporate payback, corporate welfare. We, the lower, middle, taxes go up. Money comes from Medicaid, said Sen.McConnell

        Start with the overspending, Senator. It's immoral to confiscate people's money via taxes when you can't steward it sanely, much less wisely.
