I just voted NO on the motion to proceed with the Washington Republican Tax Bill.
Simply put: I cannot support a bill that will cut health care, raise premiums, and kill Georgia jobs.
This bill robs from you to give another tax break to big corporations and billionaires.

I was asked why I will be voting NO on the Washington Republican Tax Bill. Here is my response.
Immoral.
The GOP tax bill will rip health care away from children in order to give the rich another tax cut. Rest assured, I will do everything I can to stop this.
It’s outrageous.
Republicans in Washington think that they can kick millions off their health care and that we will just “get over it.”
Let me make one thing crystal clear: I will not get over it.
I will never stop fighting to protect health care for Georgians.
This tax bill is a betrayal.
It’s a betrayal of our seniors. It’s a betrayal of the middle class. And it’s a betrayal of our children.
Why do Republicans in Washington think it’s a good idea to make health care even MORE expensive than it already is?
The tax bill they're attempting to pass right now would mean higher premiums for everyone.
Folks need to understand the reality of what’s happening in Congress right now:
Washington Republicans are trying to force through the largest cut to health care in the history of the United States.
This is beyond reckless. Why should we mortgage our children's future to pay for another billionaire tax cut?
I met a group of interfaith activists who were in Washington to bear witness & speak out against this immoral tax bill.
As an activist pastor myself, I understand that it's the people who create the context for change. So keep showing up & speaking up. Your voice matters.
Keep the faith and keep looking up.
A budget is a moral document. Show me your budget and I'll show you your values.
The Senate Republican budget proposal rips away health care and food from the needy to give tax cuts to the rich.
It’s immoral.
If you get health insurance through your employer, your premiums are about to go up.
Health care cuts in the GOP bill will cause yearly premiums to rise as much as $485 per person per year.
As if insurance wasn’t already expensive enough, the Big Ugly Bill is about to make it worse.
Because the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade three years ago, women like Amber Thurman have lost their lives due to extreme abortion bans.
I was glad to meet Amber's mother, Shanette. Amber should still be here. I won’t stop fighting for women's freedom to make their own health care decisions.
Cuts to NIH mean Georgians living with Stage IV cancer, like Richard Schlueter, can’t get the care they desperately need.
Unconscionable.
Washington Republicans are coming after the ACA (Obamacare) again.
My statement on President Trump's decision to bomb Iran without congressional approval:
This Big Ugly Bill is just the latest round of tax cuts for billionaires that come at the expense of the rest of us.
Enough is enough. It's time to put the middle class first.
Ximena Arias-Cristobal came by my office this week. She is a Georgian and an honors student at Dalton State College who was detained by ICE after being mistakenly pulled over.
Our resources should not be wasted targeting and deporting law abiding members of our communities like Ximena.
Medicaid cuts are bad for everyone.
If Republicans in Washington get their way, health insurance premiums are about to go up across the board.
