Ron Johnson first GOP senator to say he'll oppose tax reform bill
by Joseph Lawler | Nov 15, 2017, 4:17 PM

Ron Johnson on Wednesday became the first Republican senator to express opposition to the GOP tax bill currently working its way through the Finance Committee.

The Wisconsin senator said he's worried the bill would put non-corporations at a disadvantage to C corporations when it comes to benefitting from the new 20 percent tax rate, a worry he first raised in October before the bill was unveiled.

"These businesses truly are the engines of innovation and job creation throughout our economy, and they should not be left behind," Johnson said in a statement. "Unfortunately, neither the House nor Senate bill provide fair treatment, so I do not support either in their current versions."

Thanks Ron. We know you are just upset with the stripping of the healthcare mandate, but you tell yourself that you give a shit about small businesses.
