House Approves Bill to Prevent Tax Hike on Americans
WASHINGTON, DC - House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) issued the following statement after the House passed the Tax Increase Prevention Act:

I appreciate the hard work and leadership of Chairman Camp on this and other critical issues during his tenure at the committee."
