Chuck Fleischmann on Obama deficit plan: "A new day, a new tax increase"

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressman Chuck Fleischmann responded to President Obama’s plan to reduce the deficit.

“There is one thing you can always count on from President Obama: a new day, a new tax increase. Last week he proposed a new tax to pay for his jobs plan, and this week he is proposing a new tax to pay for his deficit plan. This President has not met a tax increase he did not like. Tax increases like these have already been rejected by both parties, and that will not be changing. Another tax increase on job creators and capital in this country is unacceptable,” Fleischmann said.
