No Hint Of Compromise In Boehner Op-Ed

In an editorial published today by Politico, House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) continued to rail against President Obama on taxes, but opted not to expand on comments he made over the weekend.

Instead, Boehner repeated his desire to see Congress cut spending back to pre-2008 levels and freeze current tax rates on all Americans for two years, including those making more than $250,000 per year.

“Raising taxes will only hurt an already weakened job market,” he wrote.

Boehner said that in addition to his two-point plan to boost the nation’s economy, Republicans have created a website aimed at soliciting suggestions from members of the public.
