Republican U.S. Reps. Susan Brooks and Luke Messer of Indiana applauded Vice President Mike Pence’s efforts to bring about comprehensive tax reform during his visit to their home state on Friday.
Pence spoke at the Flagship Center East at Purdue Polytechnic Institute in West Lafayette, Indiana, about ongoing efforts to enact the most comprehensive tax reform in more than 30 years.
“It is time our tax code supports hard-working American families and businesses, and the vice president understands that tax reform is needed in order to ensure Hoosiers can take home more of their paychecks,” Brooks said.
The current tax code is overly burdensome and inhibits economic growth, she added.
“I applaud the vice president’s call for a tax code that promotes job creation, supports Hoosiers throughout the fifth district and state of Indiana and allows our country to remain a leader on a global scale,” Brooks said.
Messer, meanwhile, said the tax plan being championed by the Trump administration would help grow the economy, create new jobs and increase the wages of workers in Indiana.
“Vice President Pence gets it. Hoosiers know how to use their money far better than the government, and it’s time we let folks keep more of their hard-earned paychecks,” Messer said. “I want to thank the vice president for returning to Indiana today to urge support for the president’s tax cuts, and I look forward to working closely with him as we deliver much-needed tax relief to Hoosiers.”
