IF YOU DON'T WANT A TAX CUT, YOU CAN MAIL IT BACK TO THE IRS
(Mr. BABIN asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute.)
Mr. BABIN. Mr. Speaker, some folks in Washington are upset because we
just passed the largest tax cut in American history. They think that
this money is Washington's money and that politicians and bureaucrats
should decide how to spend it.
I couldn't disagree more. You and I know that this money belongs to
the American people. It came out of their wallets.
Under our new law, we put hardworking families first by helping them
cope with the costs of raising children by doubling the child tax
credit.
We also help small businesses by cutting their taxes so that they can
compete with foreign companies and create jobs right here in America.
For those folks who don't think that they need an average extra
$1,500 or more a year to spend, or who think that politicians and
bureaucrats can spend their money better, I have a good solution: go
ahead and drop your new refund check in the mail. Send it to the
Internal Revenue Service. The IRS will be glad to take your money.
