Rep. Chet Edwards (D-TX) explains how unfair the Republican tax bill is. "I think the american people need to understand what's happened this week. 48 hours ago, this house on a totally partisan basis passed a budget resolution that in my personal opinion put a higher priority on tax breaks for people making over a million dollars a year than it put on adequately funding national defense programs and supporting our military troops. we pleaded with our colleagues to vote against that budget resolution. the vote was partisan and it passed. let me tell you what that resolution did. it gave lee raymond who just retired as c.e.o. of exxonmobil who by the way got a $398 million retirement benefit from exxonmobil, that budget resolution gave him a $2 million dividend tax cut."
