Key Vote Alert – “YES” on Death Tax Repeal (H.R. 1105)
KEY VOTE ALERT
“YES” on Death Tax Repeal (H.R. 1105)
The Club for Growth urges all House members to vote “YES” on the Death Tax Repeal Act of 2015 (H.R. 1105). A vote is expected later this week. This vote will be included in the Club for Growth’s 2015 Congressional Scorecard.
This is a grossly unfair and unpopular tax that only incites class warfare. Repealing it would be extremely pro-growth and would do wonders for reviving our country’s sluggish economy.
Our Congressional Scorecard for the 114th Congress provides a comprehensive rating of how well or how poorly each member of Congress supports pro-growth, free-market policies and will be distributed to our members and to the public.
