As Key Tax Vote Looms Just Hours Away, Jeff Bingaman Still Refuses To State Position

With just hours until the U.S. Senate’s scheduled cloture vote on a proposed bipartisan compromise to extend current tax rates for all Americans, U.S. Senator Jeff Bingaman (D-NM) still refuses to tell New Mexicans where he stands. Democrats promised during the 2010 elections to slam American families and small businesses with a massive job-killing tax hike as they struggle with nearly 10 percent unemployment. But, with just 18 days until the 2001 and 2003 tax cuts expire, President Obama is yielding to voter demands and accepting a compromise that would maintain current tax rates. However, other Washington Democrats, such as outgoing U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), are demanding that President Obama follow through on his promise to raise Americans’ taxes. “With his party leaders at war with one another and this key vote just hours away, why won’t Senator Bingaman just tell voters where he stands on raising their…

As Job-Killing $3 Trillion Tax Hike Looms, Where Does Bob Casey Stand?

With just 23 days until the 2001 and 2003 tax cuts expire, slamming Americans with a job-killing $3 trillion tax hike as they struggle under 9.8 percent unemployment, U.S. Senator Bob Casey (D-PA) remains conspicuously silent as to whether he supports a proposed bipartisan compromise to extend current tax rates for all Americans. Casey’s fellow Democrats in Washington remain sharply divided, with President Barack Obama yielding to voter demands and supporting a compromise while House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and others demand he follow through on his promise of a massive tax hike.
