    I disagree with the chairman’s vote, but he, like all of us, should vote according to the principles on which he was elected—as long as within bounds of the Constitution. Leaders would be wise to surround themselves with more people, not fewer, who hold alternative viewpoints.https://twitter.com/rachaelmbade/status/937778546021470209 …

        Why should you disagree? Don't you believe that tax money is better spent by state and local government than Washington?

        Also, how can you call yourself a fiscal conservative and vote for a bill that will add a trillion dollars in debt?

        Kind of like how you used to care about the deficit and responsible spending? Those principles you were elected for? Then you voted to add $1.5T to the debt with HR1?http://www.mlive.com/opinion/grand-rapids/index.ssf/2012/03/why_rep_justin_amash_says_the.html …

        So, let's be on the record. You like tax breaks for millionaires causing an enormous deficit to be solved by "reforms" of "entitlements" like social security?

        Don't be shy. Your fellow Bond villains have already stood around talking about their plans, like Bond villains always do. It's no longer a secret. Go on the record.

        Why aren't you screaming bloody murder about the Trillion dollar increase in debt that will come from the tax bill? The Freedom Caucus could have derailed it if they'd wanted to.

        Curious as to principle to which you were elected. I know my friends and family didn’t vote for you to be a shill for the billionaire DeVos’s. Big let down.

        Frelinghuysen voted according to the wishes of his constituency, which was his obligation under these circumstances. New Jerseyans losing the state & local tax deduction may cost him his seat, regardless of his “no”vote.

        Being able to stand among those you may disagree with is honorable. Not following like lemmings is important. A no vote is not yes to the views of the left but a challenge to do better for the people.

        Maybe you have heard others concerns about the authoritarian tendencies within your party; this is a rather trivial example.
