Dear
fellow

Thank

Senate
Tax
Reform
Bill
Last
Thursday,
my
colleagues
and
I
in
the
Senate
released
our
tax
bill.
We
have
put
forth
a
plan
that
will
help
families
like
the
one
I
grew
up
in
—
single-parent
households
working
paycheck
to
paycheck
year
in
and
year
out,
praying
and
hoping
for
something
good
to
happen.
We
want
to
say
to
those
folks
who
haven't
really
had
a
raise
in
a
decade,
we
hear
you.
We
feel
your
pain.
We
want
to
deliver
to
our
American
family
the
opportunity
to
see
more
money
in
each
paycheck.
This
is
good.
And
for
folks
who
are
looking
to
start
businesses,
we
have
a
Christmas
surprise
for
you
too.
We've
lowered
taxes
on
the
average
family
about
$1,500
a
year,
$100
or
so
a
month.
You
can
watch
my
floor
speech
on
the
Tax
Cuts
and
Jobs
Act
here.
Tax
Reform
This
week
was
a
busy
one
for
tax
reform-
on
Thursday
and
Friday,
I
joined
Fox
News
to
discuss
the
Senate
tax
bill.
You
can
watch
those
segments
here
and
here.
I
also
joined
Fox
and
Friends
on
Saturday
morning
and
CBS’s
Face
the
Nation
on
Sunday
morning.
You
can
watch
those
segments
here
and
here.
Around
the
State
I
was
happy
to
be
in
South
Carolina
this
weekend
to
join
my
fellow
South
Carolinians
in
celebrating
Veterans
Day.
On
Friday,
I
visited
Alma
Elementary
School
in
Gaffney
to
join
parents
in
learning
about
the
Lena
“Talk
to
Me”
program.
Afterwards,
I
traveled
to
Union
to
meet
with
local
community
leaders
to
discuss
the
state
of
Union
County.
Later,
I
met
with
folks
in
Newberry
at
the
Fairview
Community
Center
to
give
an
update
on
the
current
happenings
in
Washington
and
answer
questions.
I
was
happy
to
end
my
day
in
Simpsonville,
where
I
attended
the
First
Baptist’s
Veterans
Recognition
Dinner.
It
was
an
honor
to
speak
and
be
able
to
meet
so
many
true
American
heroes.
On
Saturday,
I
was
blessed
to
celebrate
Veterans
Day
in
Greenville,
with
a
special
Vietnam
era
Veteran
pinning
ceremony.
To
all
of
our
veterans
this
weekend-
your
courage
and
sacrifice
will
never
be
forgotten
&
we
thank
you
today
and
every
day.
 
 
Sincerely,
Tim
