Sam Johnson statement on fiscal cliff deal


Washington, Jan 2 -

Today, U.S. Congressman Sam Johnson (TX-03) released the following statement after voting against H.R. 8, the American Taxpayer Relief Act.

"I voted against a bad bill that raises taxes on families and small businesses. I never have, and never will, support legislation that digs deeper into the pockets of hard-working taxpayers of the 3rd district to foot the bill for Washington’s spending.  The President must work with Congress to address the real problem hurting our economy – spending.  Americans want, need and deserve better protection of their taxpayer dollars.”
