WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Shelley Moore Capito (R-W.Va.) today joined other Republican congressional leaders to release a framework for tax reform. After participating in an event to announce the plan, Senator Capito issued the following statement:
 
“For the first time in decades, we have an opportunity to advance tax reforms that will transform our economy, put more money in the pockets of hardworking Americans, create good-paying jobs, and empower small businesses to grow and expand. States like West Virginia have been hit hard by a struggling economy and stagnant wages, but this framework lays out the path to a brighter future. Comprehensive, pro-growth tax reform will help deliver the relief so many families and communities in our state desperately need and create new opportunities for our children and grandchildren. This is our chance to foster a new age of American prosperity.”
