Warner: ‘I Agree We Need Tax Reform; We’ve Got a Way Too Complicated System’ (The Washington Free Beacon)

Democratic Sen. Mark Warner (Va.) said Thursday on MSNBC that America needs tax reform, arguing the current tax system is "way too complicated."

Host Andrea Mitchell noted Warner's past business experience before asking for his thoughts on the current debate over tax reform.

"Because you were a leading businessman, you were governor, you know about this stuff. The president claiming—and we're going to be talking about the tax proposals—claiming they are helping middle-class people, that it's aimed at the working class, the middle class, it's not gonna help the rich people like him," Mitchell said to Warner. "That broad claim from the White House and Republican leaders, what say you?"
