DCCC: Rep. Latham could have cost Iowa families $1,115 in tax cuts
A report released this week from the Citizens for Tax Justice shows that if Representative Tom Latham had his way, Iowa families would receive $1,115 less in tax cuts. The major tax cuts enacted under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, which Latham voted against, reduced federal income taxes for tax year 2009 for 98 percent of all working people.
