Rep. Nick Langworthy warns of looming tax hikes, backs bill to extend Trump-era tax cuts
(WNY News Now) – WASHINGTON, D.C. — Congressman Nick Langworthy delivered remarks on the House floor today in support of H.R. 1, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, a Republican-led effort to make the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act permanent:
“In just a short time, key provisions of the current tax code—provisions that helped power economic growth, create jobs, and lift take-home pay for millions of Americans— are set to expire.
“If we do nothing, we’re looking at the largest tax increase in a generation. Families will see their child tax credit slashed. Small businesses will lose vital expensing tools that make the difference in hiring new employees and staying open next year. Workers will see their paychecks shrink. And those who can least afford it—working parents, middle class families—will be the ones hit the hardest.
“Let’s be clear: this outcome, where the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act expires leading to colossal tax increases for the American people, is something my colleagues on the Left wholeheartedly support.
“But Republicans in Congress and President Trump will not allow Democrats to stand in the way of the economic future of the American people. That’s why the legislation before us today makes the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act permanent, and brings historic tax relief to seniors, tipped workers, and those who work overtime.”
