This is completely unacceptable. The Democrat majority has no problem introducing the largest tax increase in American history or loading up spending bills with pork barrel spending, but when it comes to fixing or even patching the AMT to protect hard-working taxpayers they simply can’t be bothered.

The outdated AMT disproportionately hurts the middle class and our nation. A patch must be passed before more hard-working Americans are punished.
