brady: madam speaker, i want to thank my colleagues jim mcdermott, and marsha blackburn for joining me in leading the fight to make this middle class tax provision permanent. this provision is about tax fairness and equal treatment. if taxpayers and income tax states can deduct their state and local income tax, so should residents of sales tax states. that in america is just fair. this provision helps hardworking taxpayers keep a little more of what they earn, which is ever more important to families given the stagnant paychecks over the past number of years. more than 10 million american taxpayers in nine states depend on this commonsense deduction, and the dollars that stay in the local community help grow their economy rather than grow washington's economy. a permanent state and local sales tax deduction provides certainty to american families makes federal budgets scorekeeping more honest, and removes the as tirrisk from this temporary provision so the pro-growth tax reform can advance. it's certainly important to texas since its been restored, my neighbors have saved more than $10
