Why Does Cicilline Refuse to #StopTheTaxHike? He Wants to Complete Obama’s Massive Spending Checklist
Democrats Will Keep Spending As Long As Rhode Islanders are Footing the Bill

WASHINGTON — President Obama recently said that he would repeat his past bailouts with ‘every industry.’ For Rhode Island families and small businesses, this means that more job-killing tax hikes – tax hikes that David Cicilline voted for – will be imposed in order to fund Obama’s reckless spending addiction (H.R. 8, 8/1/2012).

“President Obama’s plan to tax job creators will direct their hard-earned money to big-government bailouts ‘in every industry,'” said NRCC Communications Director Paul Lindsay. “When will David Cicilline realize that more tax hikes does not equal more jobs?”

Campaigner-in-Chief President Obama said in Colorado this week that he wants to continue massive spending bailouts ‘in every industry:’

“‘Now I want to do the same thing with manufacturing jobs, not just in the auto industry, but in every industry,’ [said Obama].” (Donovan Slack, “Obama: Let’s Repeat Auto Rescue With Every Manufacturing Industry,” Politico, 8/9/2012)
