Re “Personal Pleas to Senator on the Bubble” (news article, Dec. 15:

The United Food and Commercial Workers International Union represents over a million hard-working families across America, many of whom earn less than $75,000 a year. We can say without hesitation that the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act will hurt them.

For more than a decade, wages have stagnated, even as corporate profits have surged. Instead of a tax bill that would help strengthen the very families who make America great and make it work, it rewards corporations and the rich.

Worst of all, this so-called tax cut betrays everything working- and middle-class voters have been asking for in recent elections. It will not create jobs. It will not raise wages. It puts health care at risk. It cuts vital deductions that help middle-class families save.

Hard-working families have earned and deserve better than this bill. Any member of Congress who truly cares about making America great again will vote against this abomination.
