Bipartisan Caucus Working Together for a Win for the American People

May 23, 2017

WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today, Tom Reed (NY-23) and Josh Gottheimer (NJ-5), Co-Chairs of the bipartisan Problem Solvers Caucus, released the following statement announcing the Caucus’ commitment to driving bipartisan efforts to deliver tax reform this year:

"The Problem Solvers Caucus is eager and ready to engage with all stakeholders in the important work on comprehensive tax reform. We believe smart, targeted infrastructure investment tied to a tax reform package could garner significant bipartisan support.  This would be a win for the American people by delivering a lower competitive tax rate regime producing growth, while at the same time fixing our crumbling infrastructure without burdening future generations."

The Caucus’ support for comprehensive tax reform that includes infrastructure investment underscores the commitment of its more than 40 Members of Congress, evenly split between Republicans and Democrats, to working together across party lines to get things done and ensure critical legislation is passed.
