CARSON: RESCUE PACKAGE CENTERPIECE SHOULD BE MORE ABOUT RESPONSIBLE HOMEOWNERS AND LESS ABOUT RECKLESS COMMERICAL ENTITIES
September 26, 2008
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Contact: Micah Ragland - 202.225.4011 or 202.841.4065
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Congressman André Carson released the following statement today regarding the financial rescue package negotiations currently taking place between the U.S. House, U.S. Senate and Bush Administration:
"Responsible homeowners and hardworking American taxpayers should be the beneficiaries of this rescue package, not irresponsible lenders and greedy corporate executives. To reward the wrong, at the expense of the right, sends the wrong message and does nothing to help the hardworking American taxpayer in need of relief and urgent assistance.
"As negotiations progress, I will continue to call on the Congressional Leadership and Bush Administration to draft a more inclusive package that provides property tax relief through enhanced deductions and incentivized tax credits. The incorporation of more mortgage relief provisions and the inclusion of improved taxpayer protections will increase our economic productivity and safeguard the financial interests of hardworking Americans."
