I am extremely upset by the passing of the tax bill in the Senate. I can’t believe that a bill as important as this was pushed through in less than a week. It was voted on without even knowing what was really in there.

Sens. Susan Collins and Angus King must take several months and gather a bipartisan committee to iron out the details of the tax bill. We are not a one-party system in this country; we are a two-party system, and two parties should have input on this extremely important change to our tax structure.

I do not want you to raise the debt ceiling in order to push the tax bill further along.
