The 12 House Republicans who voted “no” on the tax cut bill represent an extraordinarily wealthy slice of the economy.

Look at it this way: The median congressional district by household income is California’s 22nd, with an income of $52,172. Of the 12 Republicans who voted “no,” 10 come from above-median districts. In fact, most of the “no” votes (7 of 12), come from districts with a median household income greater than $75,000, placing them in the 50 wealthiest congressional districts, or the top 11 percent.
