The Buffett Rule, a proposed tax hike on hardworking Americans, would only further complicate our tax structure and do nothing to reduce our rising deficits. In fact, if enacted, it would only reduce our annual deficit of $1.2 trillion by less than half of 1%. It's time for real solutions--not pointless tax hikes. House Republicans are committed to cutting spending and instilling meaningful, pro-growth tax reform. Check out our plan at http://jobs.gop.gov.

FIRST LOOK: USING OBAMA’S WORDS AGAINST HIM – House Republicans are taking sound bites from the president to make their own argument against the Buffett Rule tax on millionaires. In a new YouTube video, Obama says: Others “are saying, ‘Well, this is just a gimmick, just imposing the Buffett Rule won’t do enough to close the deficit,’ Well, I agree. But the notion that it doesn’t solve the entire problem doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t do it at all.” That’s an understatement, Republicans say: Revenue from the Buffett Rule wouldn’t even cover 1 percent of the deficit.
