Nov 28, 2017 12:13 pm
Simone Pathé in Roll Call reported that the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee is running digital ads on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram against Rep. John Faso (R-Kinderhook) about the Republican tax plan currently before Congress. While there are no Congressional hearings about the plan, more votes may come soon. Faso voted against the tax plan Nov. 16 after it was clear that it would pass the House of Representatives, and has generally spoken in favor of it, except for the elimination of exemptions for state and local taxes. In a fundraising post of his own to Facebook Faso wrote, "It’s a FACT that I voted against the tax reform bill because it took away state and local tax deductions. But Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats are running dishonest negative ads on social media that don’t tell the truth. I need your help to fight back." Read the full story in in Roll Call.
