‘As of today, we have the highest corporate tax rate in the world. As of April 1st, the highest corporate tax rate in the world. …even the President himself has said we need to get a corporate tax rate down. At the same time, he's trying to selectively raise taxes on some corporations, and to do that would drive the price of gas at the pump even higher. This is a terrible idea.’
‘Kentuckians are working hard to rebuild. And I’m pleased to say that despite the tragedy of lives lost, families grieving, and memories destroyed forever, there is some good news to report. And that is how inspiring it is to see so many good-hearted Kentuckians come together to provide for their neighbors in the wake of these tornadoes.’
