Bill Nelson: Fiscal Cliff Bill 'Something We Had To Do'

U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson, D-Orlando, released a statement Wednesday on Senate Bill 8, the fiscal cliff deal.

It was something we had to do to keep the country from going over the fiscal cliff and to prevent income taxes from going up for more than 95 percent of folks. Now weve got to finish the job of fixing our countrys financial ills with more targeted spending cuts and reforming our tax code.
