The principles that should govern our tax reform debate are economic growth, fairness, and simplicity.

Economic growth must be our top priority...

So we can make it easier for the single mom to pay her monthly mortgage

So we can make it easier for the factory worker to pay for his child’s education

So we can make it easier for families to make ends meet and small businesses to expand and create jobs.

As we move forward, we must be bold.

We should pursue a flatter, fairer rate for Americans at all income levels – ideally one low, simple, flat tax.

We should pursue the repeal of Dodd-Frank. We should pursue long term reforms, over a 20-30 year window, not just 5-10 years.
