    There has not been one public hearing, no opportunity to hear from economists, governors, mayors or ordinary Americans who will be impacted by this tax bill. This is a sham.

    My God. In 2011, Roy Moore literally said he'd like to abolish all of the Constitutional Amendments after the 10th. He then specifically targeted amendments giving rights to the formerly enslaved. And he is in the lead now in Alabama. SHAME ON AMERICA

    In 1946-48, after defeating the fascist countries of Germany, Japan and Italy, officials from the Roosevelt/Truman administration helped write new Constitutions for these countries — and included equal rights for women in all of them! Yet we ourselves don’t have that to this day!
