Mr. Portman mr. President , i want to talk tonight about a once in a Generation Opportunity we have in this senate tonight to help middleclass families, to help grow our economy, and im going to talk about the facts. Im not going to be making stuff up. Im going to talk about the real middleclass tax cuts that are in this legislation. Im going to show you charts that indicate not just what kind of tax relief is going to be there for you and your family, but whos going to pay, where the burden is. And despite what youre hearing on the floor tonight from some on the other side of the aisle, the burden of taxation actually increased in this tax bill for the wealthiest americans. And in terms of defending the status quo, which is the situation now where jobs and investment are going overseas, i think it is an outrage that this body has sat and watched company after company go overseas because of our tax code. And to say we shouldnt fix it, i dont get that. If we dont lower the rate on busin
Listen to, the movies we watch but one thing hasnt changed, our outdated tax code hasnt kept up. We simply cant afford to wait any longer. Now is the time to act. Hoosiers need a raise. Working families across america need a raise. American businesses need to remain competitive in what is an increasingly global and hypercompetitive economy. And the bill were voting on today will provide real relief to all americans, especially middleclass families and those of modest means. The tax cuts and jobs act will create a tax code that is simpler, that is fair, and that allows hoosiers to keep more of their hardearned money. And thats what they want. This bill were voting on today will help create an environment where jobs and businesses can grow by making permanent a 21 Corporate Tax reduction. We have the highest Corporate Tax rate in the industrialized world. That is no way to remain competitive. We will lighten the burden on Small Businesses with this legislation. I come from a Small Busine

It would take to legalize, so karly can probably fill in the details. Sure, and this is one of the first removal of an unauthorized unit. Theres been a handful, but none of them have actually reached this no path to legalize issue. There was some inconsistency of how dbi was applying the standard and how planning was applying the standard. There was some confusion that the commissioners would actually be evaluating the Construction Cost or the cost to legalize. Dbi also believed that the scope of work was so extensive that the it would be infeasible for the Property Owner to legalize. Since this issue has come up on this project. Weve been working with dbi to clarify those standards and actually make them a little more arduous and closely related to life safety issues more so than a scope of work that may seem too extensive or to expensive because thats what youre going to be consider considered. Vice president richards sure. What bothers me is the Property Owner im not singling this P
