(Washington, D.C.) – Today, Council for Citizens Against Government Waste (CCAGW) President Tom Schatz released the following statement praising the Senate for passing the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act:

“All taxpayers should commend the Senate for passing their version of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.  The legislation will cut tax rates, simplify the tax code, and turbocharge the U.S. economy.  Every taxpayer dollar that is returned back to the American people is a dollar not frittered away by a federal bureaucracy full of waste, fraud, abuse, and mismanagement.  We look forward to a prompt resolution of the House and Senate bills in the conference committee so that tax reform is signed into law as soon as possible.”

The Council for Citizens Against Government Waste is the lobbying arm of Citizens Against Government Waste, the nation’s largest nonpartisan, nonprofit organization dedicated to eliminating waste, fraud, abuse, and mismanagement in government.
