Rep. Schakowsky: I’m Disappointed Paul Ryan’s Budget Deal Doesn’t Tax the Rich

‘There’s a lot not to like about this bill on both sides of the aisle’

“My problem is something the Republicans like, it asks nothing of the wealthiest corporations, no closing of loopholes, but it goes back once again to federal employees who have given up about $140 billion in cuts, and asked new federal hires to pay more toward their pensions. So there's a lot not to like about this bill on both sides of the aisle, and we have to decide whether, still, it's worth coming to an agreement. As you said, at the end of the day, coming up with something that is going to move us forward.”
