Today I join the country in mourning the passing of a great American businessman, philanthropist, and conservative: Sheldon Adelson. The son of a Jewish immigrant, Mr. Adelson’s rise to become one of our nation’s most successful entrepreneurs epitomizes the American Dream. (1/4)
His success in business was matched by his heart for philanthropy, as he poured his wealth back into the causes that mattered most to him. (2/4)
In a demonstration of his generosity and loyalty that will surely define his legacy, Mr. Adelson ensured his thousands of employees were paid when the pandemic forced so many people out of work. (3/4)
My sincerest condolences are with his wife Miriam, his entire family, and all those who are mourning today. (4/4)

I offered Democrats the chance to offer AT LEAST 20 amendments. They walked out. #JUSTICEAct
Don’t let anyone convince you this was about debates or amendments. It’s about politics, and a refusal to find a solution.
Because I realized...it wasn’t what was being offered today...it was who was offering it.

It looks like my colleagues @WhipClyburn and @RonWyden are in backdoor negotiations to systematically destroy my #OpportunityZones initiative. Y'all know me and I'm going to be completely frank here — they're only doing this because it has the support of @realDonaldTrump.
This is the second misguided attempt by Congressional Democrats in the last two weeks to wreck the #OpportunityZone initiative under the guise of ‘improvement.’ Word on the street is that The Squad is coming after the program too in the next few days/weeks...
Some facts about #OpportunityZones for y'all:
✔️ An estimated $63 billion can already be expected to be invested into them
✔️ There are 8,700 Zones with the average poverty rate of 29%

It's easy to lay out numbers, but these are people's LIVES that we're talking about.

Today Congress will pass the first comprehensive #TaxReform in a generation – a huge win for hardworking families across the country.
#TaxReformFacts – It will help the working and middle class by doubling the standard deduction, and allowing folks to write off their state and local taxes up to $10,000 #WinForFamilies
#TaxReformFacts – Repealing the individual mandate means removing a tax mainly placed on those making less than $50k a year. The bill will not take health care away from anyone, it will instead actually expand the medical expense deduction. #WinForFamilies
