McConnell : Tax Bill Will Make US an 'Economic Powerhouse Again'
McConnell
Mitch McConnell  hailed the Senate's tax bill as a "once-in-a-generation opportunity" that will "help make America an economic powerhouse again " the Senate majority leader wrote in a column for The Wall Street Journal.
 McConnell  shared the much-needed victory lap with Senate Finance Committee chairman Orrin Hatch  lauding the Utahn's "years of work" that was instrumental in the bill's passage.
"This was a once-in-a-generation opportunity that we could not let pass "  McConnell  wrote.
 McConnell  rattled off the benefits for the middle class and small businesses while also touting the "relief" the bill provides "low- and middle-income Americans by repealing ObamaCareâs individual mandate."
 McConnell  also didn't waste the opportunity to take a swing at Democrats  not one of whom voted for the legislation  forcing Republicans to rewrite the bill on the fly late last week in order to win over enough Republicans for passage.
"Democrats once claimed to support many of the foundational aspects of our legislation  like lowering taxes for the middle class and ending incentives for corporations to ship jobs overseas. But when it came time to vote  they chose partisanship over reform "  McConnell  wrote.
"I was disappointed to see that our colleagues on the other side of the aisle continue to oppose good ideas simply because they donât like the current occupant of the White House "  McConnell  wrote.
