Casey: I Will Continue to Fight for Working Families

Bob Casey's Senate Member Office (D-PA) posted a Video on December 19, 2011 | 2:06 pm - Original Item - Comments (View)
Today, US Senator Bob Casey (D-PA), Chairman of the Joint Economic Committee, released the following statement on the Senate vote on the payroll tax cut: "I am frustrated that some in Congress blocked my proposal to put more money in the pockets of 160 million Americans for all of next year. However, the measure passed today will at least provide working families with some certainty going into the holidays. I will continue to fight for working families. I intend to introduce new legislation in January to extend this tax cut for the rest of the year. 6.7 million workers in Pennsylvania are counting on Congress to get this done. Failure to do so, would cost Pennsylvania 20000 private sector jobs."

Casey: Congress Must Act to Prevent Tax Hike

Bob Casey's Senate Member Office (D-PA) posted a Video on December 7, 2011 | 4:07 pm - Original Item - Comments (View)
WASHINGTON, DC -- US Senator Bob Casey (D-PA) today pushed Congress to act on his legislation to prevent a huge tax hike from hitting middle income families on January 1st. Senator Casey introduced the Middle Class Tax Cut Act of 2011 last week to extend and expand the payroll tax cut for workers, and this week he introduced compromise legislation (S. 1944) with bipartisan ideas to try to bring Republicans on board with the proposal. The average family would see nearly $1500 in additional take-home pay if Senator Casey's legislation is passed. The Senate is expected to vote on the bill this week.

Senator Casey discusses his compromise to prevent tax hike on working families

Bob Casey's Senate Member Office (D-PA) posted a Video on December 6, 2011 | 3:35 pm - Original Item - Comments (View)
Unless Congress acts by the end of the month, a payroll tax break worth $1000 to average middle income households will expire. Economists of all political stripes have called the continuation of this tax cut critical for America's economic growth, but last week, Senate Republicans blocked two different attempts to extend the tax break. Twenty-six of 47 Senate Republicans even opposed their own party's version of the tax cut extension.

Pass the Payroll Tax Cut for PA Families, Businesses

Bob Casey's Senate Member Office (D-PA) posted a Video on December 2, 2011 | 12:25 pm - Original Item - Comments (View)
Without congressional action, a payroll tax cut that has put nearly $1000 in the pockets of the average Pennsylvania family this year will expire at the end of December. That would be tough on workers, whose budgets are already strained, and bad for the economy, which is still struggling to recover from the Great Recession. Congress should pass legislation I've introduced to prevent a tax-hike on working families.
