Taxes & Spending
With a 100% rating from the Club for Growth, Bill Cassidy is a fiscal conservative who believes the American people are overtaxed and the federal government spends far too much of their hard-earned money.
Balanced Budget: Unlike the President's budget, which raises taxes by $1.4 trillion and doubles the debt over eight years, Bill Cassidy supports a plan that balances the budget without raising taxes.
Taxes: Bill Cassidy signed the Taxpayer Protection Pledge and has never voted to raise taxes.
Earmarks & Wasteful Spending: Bill Cassidy is not requesting earmarks unless the spending process is reformed to provide greater transparency and accountability. When he introduced a sweeping earmark reform bill, Taxpayers for Common Sense applauded Cassidy for "taking the transparency bull by the horns," and the Sunlight Foundation commended him for working to "establish more trust and accountability" in government.
