Balancing the books and spending money carefully means looking out for our kids and grandkids.
So I was truly honored to be named a 2024 “Fiscal Hero” by the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget last week. The hero term may be an overstatement - we’re just being careful with our finances – but I do appreciate the recognition and, most of all, what that work means for my constituents back in Maine.
Ensuring your hard-earned tax dollars are managed effectively is a responsibility that I take seriously. That’s why I’m proud to have been a part of passing these historic measures to not only grow our economy but to ensure that everyone gets their fair share of that growth:
 * 
   We
   instituted
   (and
   I
   proudly
   supported)
   a
   corporate
   minimum
   tax
   that
   will
   ensure
   our
   most
   profitable
   corporations
   don’t
   pay
   less
   in
   taxes
   than
   teachers
   or
   firefighters.
   It
   will
   raise
   $222
   billion
   over
   the
   next
   10
   years!
 * 
   Some
   pieces
   of
   the 
   Inflation
   Reduction
   Act 
   ,
   like 
   direct
   price
   negotiation
   with
   pharmaceutical
   companies 
   on
   the
   most
   widely
   used
   drugs
   by
   Medicare
   recipients,
   will
   save
   everyday
   Americans
   hundreds
   of
   billions
   over
   the
   next
   10
   years.
   That
   bill
   also
   contained
   provisions
   from
   my 
   Stop
   CHEATERS
   Act 
   to
   help
   the
   IRS 
   crack
   down
   on
   millionaire
   and
   billionaire
   tax
   dodgers 
   so
   that
   everyone
   pays
   their
   fair
   share
   to
   the
   country
   we
   love.
That’s not enough, though — we need to stop digging the hole deeper for our kids and keep on fighting. Future Americans deserve a country in good fiscal order.
Thanks so much, John.

P.S. I'm working hard in the Senate to keep our country strong, our taxes fair, and our economy improving. If you appreciate the work I'm doing, I'd like to ask for your vote and your support in my reelection campaign this November. Can you chip in $10 or $25 today?

There is nothing more important to Senator King than doing right by the people of Maine. This means fighting on their behalf for the issues that matter most, whether that’s health care, national security, veterans, education, economic certainty, the environment or job creation. Throughout his decades of public service, he has worked tirelessly to build relationships and improve opportunities for all Maine people, from Kittery to Fort Kent.
