“Extra money for tax hikes might be in the family budget for people in San Francisco, but families in Southwest Louisiana do not have extra room in their budgets,” Boustany said. “Wasteful spending and tax hikes are irresponsible. The Democratic House leadership must understand that American families are facing higher costs at the pump, higher costs for healthcare and education, and more money to pay federal taxes simply isn’t there.”
“Tax increases on working families and small business is no way to govern,” Boustany said. “Growing our economy, helping American entrepreneurs and allowing more families to keep more of their money are what a responsible budget should do. This Democratic budget is simply a wasteful tax hike on working families. We need a budget that will lead to American prosperity.”
“Protecting Southwest Louisiana families and most vulnerable is our responsibility,” Boustany said. “I am proud of my record of standing for family values, and I will continue to fight for Louisiana’s most vulnerable.”
