Boyle Opening Statement at Mark Up of Republican Economic Plan to Betray the Middle Class

Today, Congressman Brendan F. Boyle (PA), Ranking Member of the House Budget Committee, delivered opening remarks at a committee markup of the Republican budget—a proposal that undermines the middle class by cutting essential programs that help millions of families afford health care, put food on the table, and keep their children in school. This plan prioritizes billionaire donors over hardworking Americans, stealing taxpayer dollars away from the middle class to benefit the wealthy.
