Ocasio-Cortez, Tlaib propose amendment to defund administration of 'opportunity zone' program
Progressive Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) this week proposed an amendment that would prevent the IRS from using funds to administer or enforce the "opportunity zone" program created by President Trump's 2017 tax-cut law.
The lawmakers are proposing that their amendment be added to an appropriations bill that includes funding for the Treasury Department and IRS. The House Rules Committee is scheduled to meet Monday to determine which amendments proposed by lawmakers will be made in order.
Under the opportunity zone program, investors can receive capital gains tax breaks if they make investments in designated economically-distressed areas.

If it was 1954, these two bitches would be in jail.
How many lives were lost in the Cold War 1947-1989, only to lose to an internal take over.

The Democratic Party cannot afford to lose any of the black vote. If that means keeping black folks in poor schools or in a state of desperation economically, they will do it as long as those votes continue to go to the Democratic Party

I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.
