“I support the Doug LaMalfa Federal Disaster Tax Relief Certainty Act. I am a proud cosponsor, co-lead of this bill with Representatives Greg Steube and Mike Thompson, a bill that would build on the Federal Disaster Tax Relief Act which we passed last Congress, thanks to the leadership of Representative Steube, a bill that would ensure that those impacted by disasters nationwide have continued access to tax relief.”

“By expanding eligibility for the educator expense deduction to early-childhood educators, the bill will finally recognize the incredible dedication and work of these pre-K educators. This is one step toward supporting those who extend themselves day in and day out to help grow and educate all of our children.”

“Mr. Speaker, this is more than about just a naming of a VA clinic. This is about patriotism. It is about passion, and it is about progression as a nation.
