President Donald Trump called out House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi Friday morning for voting against the 2017 GOP tax cuts.

“Nancy Pelosi is going absolutely crazy about the big Tax Cuts given to the American People by the Republicans…got not one Democrat Vote! Here’s a choice. They want to end them and raise your taxes substantially. Republicans are working on making them permanent and more cuts,” Trump tweeted Friday morning.

House and Senate leadership wants to make the 2017 tax cuts permanent, especially before the 2018 midterm elections. Republicans are looking like they might lose the House in November and the party does not have a surefire lock on the Senate.

Speaker of the House Paul Ryan is looking to pass another tax cut this summer. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell told reporters Tuesday that he “may” hold a vote this year to extend 2017 tax cuts, like Congress did with the Bush tax cuts.
