Jefferson, Please explain how voting for HR23 (‘defunding the IRS’) is a ‘great win for the American people.’ First and most important, you just voted to INCREASE the deficit by about $110 Billion dollars according to the non partisan Congressional Budget Office. Aren’t you the guys who said they would get the budget under control. $110 Billion added to the budget deficit seems like the wrong direction. And don’t get me started on the ‘army of IRS agents’ coming to get your bank account. Only your very richest constituents making $400,000 plus per year are the target group, and you know it!
