The Times Leader in Princeton, Kentucky covers Senator Mitch McConnell's comments on the Democrat budget. The budget, opposed by Senator McConnell, would pave the way to massive tax increases for 43 million American families. You can read more about the budget and its consequences here.

This debate made clear that Congressional Democrats are willing to raise taxes on middle- and lower-income families so they can spend more from Washington. Instead of working to increase the size of the family budget, Democrats once again chose to grow the government budget, raising taxes on middle-class American families by an average of $2,300 a year and refusing to reform the middle-class tax hike known as the AMT. Sadly, this budget does nothing to address the looming entitlement crisis our children will inherit from us.
