The annual practice of letting tax breaks expire is a symptom a divided, dysfunctional Congress that struggles to pass routine legislation, said Lewis, a senior Democrat on the tax-writing House Ways and Means Committee. âItâs not fair, itâs very hard, itâs very difficult for a business person, a company, to plan, not just for the short term but to do long-term planning,â Lewis said. âItâs shameful.â (AP Photo/J.
