Rep. Calvert Votes for Key Step Towards Tax Reform

Today, Congressman Ken Calvert (CA-42) voted along with a majority (216 to 212) of the House of Representatives to approve the Fiscal Year 2018 budget resolution, paving the way for Congress to consider tax reform legislation that will provide tax relief for middle-income taxpayers.


"Now that Congress has approved the budget resolution we are on a path towards much needed tax relief for middle-income taxpayers," said Rep. Calvert. "I am looking forward to the release of tax reform legislation by the House Ways and Means Committee next week. Moving forward, I will be working with my colleagues to ensure our tax reform bill fulfills our promise to deliver a pro-growth tax plan that helps our economy and eases the tax burden on working families."


Earlier today, House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Kevin Brady indicated the committee will introduce its tax reform legislation on November 1st and consider the legislation in a committee markup on November 6th.
