Back to more details on the final tax bill. It has been released lets bring in blake burman in d. C. With the latest with the breaking news. Hi, liz we were first to trompe loeil you earlier this afternoon there will indeed be seven different brackets according to the tax plan let us run you through the numbers and well keep this at a brief overview. Those seven different brackets 10 , 12 , 22, 24, 32, 35, 37 and on the single side the numbers this is the exact same set of numbers as the initial senate plan on the single side and married and filing jointly side thats where the tweeks came into play and those came in at the 22 and 24, 32 rate and especially at the 37 rate is that number dropped from a Million Dollars all the way down to 600,000 but the headline in this, seven different brackets according to this new plan. As it relates to corporate as weve been telling you for days now the corporate rate will be set at 21 starting next year. There will be a repeal of the corporate amt and as for the one time repatriation rate that will be set at 15 for cash and 8 range rather for ill liquid assets. This all started to come together this afternoon within the last few hours for republicans as marco rubio said he was once again a yes. He had concerns as it related to the Child Tax Credit and bob corker who had concerns about the deficit said that he would be voting yes as well. Looking forward to next week, john mccain and thad cochran both of whom are battling Different Health issues are expected to be in the senate for their votes. The expectations are, liz, that this timeline is still up, still on the same timeline for tuesday , possibly wednesday for this to officially hit the books liz great reporting blake. We could have the dow 25,000 by christmastime. Lets stay on it for a second to your point. The Corporate Tax cut does take effect january 1 of 2018 and its a 21 double the child credit, it preserves salt, caps at 10,000 that deduction for state and local and the mortgage Interest Deduction stays for existing i think for new homes, its at 750 k house value and it gets rid of the Obamacare Mandate right, blake . Yeah the Obamacare Mandate gone. You just ran through some of those things. You know, liz, we had been told here from the white house for months that this was going to be a negotiation up on capitol hill and what we see in these numbers and in these figures, this was a negotiation up on capitol hill the senate won on some stuff the house won on others and you have republicans in the senate side. Liz dow 25 k by christmas the markets acrosstheboard in the green. Thank you so much, great reporting my friend. Good to see you. Msnbc going overboard now, fear monkerring about tax cuts with media histeria that not even reagan, clinton or kennedy saw when their administration did tax cuts. Msnbc guest tim obrien ramping up conspiracy theories saying tax reform will destabilize the u. S. Government. Roll tape. This is an effort to permanently destabilize the way the federal Government Funds itself. This bill is designed to completely snap the Purse Strings and separate the citizens of the United States from their government and the governments ability to deliver thins to them like infrastructure, like wage equality, like sensible deficit management, funding of public schools. What this is is its an assault on the Purse Strings of the federal government. Liz comcast the Parent Company of msnbc ending the day in the green more than 1. 5 higher today. Msnbc clearly forgetting recent history about what really destabilizes governments, doubling the debt when you have virtually no Economic Growth. That is what destabilized europe , countries like greece, italy and spain and it is what the u. S. Just endured for the last eight years. With me now craig smith. Craig whats wrong with more money in your pockets . Have msnbc and democrats jumped down a memory hole . Did they forget what kennedy and reagan and clinton did . They cut taxes and the rich started paying more and revenues started pouring in. Go ahead. I was just thinking as i was listening to that, emac, john kennedy would not be welcome in the Democratic Party any more. I mean he just has no place there, given the way these attitudes are and for this guy to talk about destabilizing the country how about whats going on to try and under mine a duly elected president. Some of the things ive heard today are absolutely ridiculous and talk about well theyre taking healthcare away. No were going to make it to this bill will make it to where you are not forced to buy healthcare. The mandate goes away and so is this a perfect bill . No i dont think its a perfect bill but man its a heck of a start and when you look at Corporate Taxes going from 35 to 21 and you look at the individual business taxes going from what normally is about 39. 6 to 23 , liz, this could be one of the most powerful drivers of our economy that weve ever seen. I cant wait to stand by and listen to art lafflers comments because what these people are saying on the fear mongering side is laughable at best and at worst its dangerous for the future of this country. Liz its misleading and idiotic quite frankly because ive been covering taxes and the irs for 30 years and never seen an analysis like that and so un hinged from reality as what i see coming out of msnbc and some people on cnn to your point about jfk, here is the quote from jfk. Every dollar released from taxation that is spent or invested will help create a new job and a new salary and to your point, craig, kennedy said the best welfare is a job and they all cut taxes again the rich paid more in revenues came in go ahead craig. Right, and look, lets just take the individual Corporate Tax. You know the Small Business tax okay . A guy used to be paid 39. 6 now hes paying 23 or shes paying 23 and now you put more money in that persons pocket and theyre out buying things for their factory or Small Business so theyre hiring more people or paying higher wages. John kennedy got it right and quite frankly, Ronald Reagan copied John Kennedys tax bill and now, youve got donald trump copying Ronald Reagans tax bill and so i know i saw this headline that splashed about paul krugman, the republicans despise the middle class . He should have his Nobel Peace Prize taken away. His Nobel Peace Prize was given to him over being able to analyze trade patterns and locate areas of Economic Growth. Liz lets stay on that. To your point he did write that in the New York Times op ed entitled republicans despise the working class but was it in Hillary Clinton did not campaign enough from working class voters in michigan, wisconsin, pennsylvania Hillary Clinton used the term deplorable talking about those working class voters and wasnt it hillary who said this, listen. Were going to put a lot of coal miners and Coal Companies out of business. Liz where are the headlines about that . Did msnbc and the guys at cnn take that on enough do you think yeah, i wont mention their callers, okay . But i can tell you, youre absolutely correct. She made it clear. We want to take jobs away and here youve got a president thats saying jobs jobs jobs. To him it is a three letter, excuse me a four letter word okay . The reality is that what we see coming out of the democrats is typical isolate tactics trying to scare people when in fact, liz, like i said, paul krugman, he studied trade patterns and i want to ask you something. Do you think reducing one of the highest Corporate Tax rates in the world, 35 in america, to 21 , is going to have a negative impact on trade patterns or a positive impact on trade patterns . You and i both know the answer to that question, liz. Liz you know id also like to see what stocks are in paul k rugmans 401 k . He never talks about how Government Union worker pensions are investments in stocks and then theres this, craig. Why should we trust paul krugman , when hes made these whopping errors and missed the subprime mortgage crisis and only started writing about subprime in 2007. Fran it and freddie were blamed for the mortgage collapse and said europe is a comeback continent in 2008 when europe was about to collapse European Unions breakup. He kept saying dozens of times it would breakup but it never did and under its underestimated the impact of productivity across the country. Those are some of the errors paul krugman made craig. The Nobel Peace Prize committee ought to remove his Nobel Peace Prize because what he got it for is exactly in total opposition with the position hes taking right now, and ive got to tell the American People this. First off, this is a good tax bill. Not a great tax bill, a good solid tax bill. Its a start, liz and i believe, look just the repatriation liz. If you bring assets back, its at 7. 5 you bring cash back its at 14. 5 . These companies couldnt bring that money back in because they get wacked 35 . Now, those, think of this about what is toyota thinking right now, bmw is saying i want to build more factories in america because i want to be treated better. Liz exactly. Period. You see it in individuals they leave high tax states for texas and florida. Companies did the same leaving the country with their cash. Maybe well make it a Better Climate here. You dont see that analysis like you just gave craig smith thank you so much for giving it to our viewers and Merry Christmas to you sir. Merry christmas emac. Liz highlights of the tax bill are out were moments away from basically how this is going to go down in d. C. Were having senators weighing in right now, its exciting stuff, you wont want to miss the hot action the senators now weighing in, the vote could commas early as monday we have breaking news throughout this hour with this story the comey edits revealed remarks on the Clinton Probe were watered down before james comey made his final exonerating statement about Hillary Clinton. Fox news got the documents and weve got the details thats next. Stay right there. Liz now we gave you some of the details of the market moving republican tax cut bill and it is moving the markets acrosstheboard the indices now in the green. Were in the middle of A Santa Claus rally, we could be talking dow 25,000 by basically christmas day. President trump speaking at the Fbi National Academy Graduation Ceremony today, but before him, he had this to say about charges of fbi bias in the hillary probe roll tape. President trump were going to rebuild fbi, it will be bigger and better than ever but it is very sad when you look at those documents and how theyve done that is really really disgraceful and you have a lot of very angry people that are seeing it. Liz this as the draft of former fbi director james comey s remarks about the Hillary Clinton email case shows his statement the text of the statement that exonerated her was heavily edited before he actually delivered it. Here st. Original text. It reads there is evidence that support a conclusion that secretary on and others used the private email server in a manner grossly negligent but that isnt what comey said when he made his public announcement exonerating Hillary Clinton. Roll tape. Although we did not find clear evidence that secretary clinton or her colleagues intended to violate laws govern ing the hailing of classified information, there is evidence that they were extreme ly careless in their handling of very sensitive highly classified information. Liz now, his final statement also removed a reference to the shear volume of classified information discussed in Hillary Clintons emails. Lets bring in trump Media Advisory board member gina loude n. So great to see you. We need you on this story. Why do you think the language softened and watered down. Why do you think that happened . I think it happened because they had a desired outcome, liz. They knew exactly what they were doing. The evidence to convict the people who were supposed to be collecting evidence about the whole russian collusion theory, the evidence to convict them is by far more plentiful than any of it than has come out in more than a year on investigations of President Trump. These are the people who should be investigated and arrested. Liz you know some would say they have opinions right and are entitled to their opinions and theres no indication yet that they jumped the shark and actively plotted against President Trump, right . Well, i think that there is, actually. I mean, you cant try anything in the court of public opinion. Ive been very outspoken about that but my opinion on this is you look at things like the fact that the wife of a demoted doj person was actually paid by fusion gps who were the creators of the russian dossier, the fake russian dossier in the first place. Thats evidence, liz i dont know what else we need. These people need to be taken down for what they have done and dont forget too that same doj official whose wife was hired was already demoted for conceal ing the fact that he had met with fusion gps, so this evidence is just mounting and the sad part, liz i think this is the really sad part, is it puts such a distrust in the American Peoples heart for, you know, our government officials that we should be able to trust, especially these government officials. Liz the federal cops dont want to be looked like theyre doing politics and putting in the candidate that they want. I mean they reconcile the fbi hates being politicized because they want to catch the bad guys. To your point about the outfit behind the antitrump dossier it is called fusion gps now admits the wife of Justice Department official bruce orr did work at fusion and again thats the firm funded by the dnc and Clinton Campaign that did Opposition Research on donald trump. So is there any way that her husband could have been objective in this investigation . Again government workers say they are entitled to their opinion. Do you know what liz let me tell you something. My husband was in the Missouri State senate and i remember companies approaching me offer ing to give me jobs for things that my husband was voting on. Just because this kind of thing happens in politics all the time doesnt make it right and no, he couldnt be objective and now, its also been released he was actually meeting with him and concealing he was meeting with them. Why was he meeting with fusion gps . There is just something very sti nky here. This is exactly why the president says the swamp needs to be drained and this is more pure evidence of it and like you mentioned liz it is sad because you take just in police work you take one bad cop somewhere and it makes the rest of the good cops who are largely good look bad. I believe that most people there want to do a good job. They want to get to the truth and they want to carry things out with ethical behavior but everything points to the fact that thats not whats happened here. Liz i want to get to the Newt Gingrich quote i need 10 seconds. Gina, the fbi statement also that comey had also watered down first it said reasonably likely that hillarys server was hacked and then it was watered down to possible. Hillary clinton was traveling as secretary of state in 2009 with an unprotected email server. Thats what experts have told us , the fbi agents told me that they were worried about that gina. She was going at the time traveling to egypt, turkey and china, so thats the real issue, was she hacked and what information was stolen out of her server we dont know but we want to get to this Newt Gingrich and i want your reaction to what Newt Gingrich is saying about attorney general jeff sessions. Roll tape. You have here a sespool of corruption covering up for the clintons in a way which i would have to say as a historian is unimaginable. I do not know of any point in American History where you have this level of a system of corruption. At every level this is undermining our system of justice, it is violating the law , very likely all of these people will end up going to jail its time for the attorney general to step up to the plate and do his job. He has no excuse, as somebody who i know believes in the law, he has to setup a clinton investigation, he has to setup an fbi Justice Department investigation. This is his obligation under the law to enforce it and to protect the American People. Liz your reaction, gina . Oh, i agree with speaker gingrich that this definitely needs to be investigated as i said but i think the interesting thing is do we know that its not being investigated just because there arent leaks out of sessions office, were so used to leaks i think if were not hearing about it we think its not happening. Do we know its not happening and i dont know the answer to that but i absolutely agree with speaker gingrich this absolutely this investigation needs carried out. Liz we love having you on come back soon please we look forward to it. Love being on thank you liz. Liz fox business is getting briefed right now on the final market moving details of the tax cut bill. Weve got a reporter inside the room thats going to get to the details as soon as its done well bring that to you its breaking news throughout the hour but first black lives matter is now calling for a christmas boycott of white capitalism were bringing in americas sheriff hes david clark and here to react after this stay right there dont go away. You cant predict the market. But through good times and bad. At t. Rowe price. Weve helped our investors stay confident for over 75 years. Call us or your advisor. T. Rowe price. Invest with confidence. Liz welcome back. Black lives matter now calling for a boycott of white capitalismism this Christmas Season and on its website it saysmake this christmas a black christmas, no spending with white corporations, consider donating to black organizations if you must buy, buy black hashtag curb your consumerism. Lets bring in former Milwaukee County sheriff, he is americas sheriff david clark. Good to see you sheriff whats your reaction . Well its a whole lot of young black kids that are disappointed on Christmas Morning when they wake up and find no air jordans under the tree most of those are sold by whiteowned businesses for higher end blacks that like the higher end labels that like gucc i, i guess not this year. Look this has George Sorels funding written all over it. His movement the Socialistic Movement has hijacked black lives matter and they use them as a mask. They figured the coming out of the 60s when they failed with this movement, they felt they were too white and they needed to add color and they did that this time around by hijacking the black lives Matter Movement for their antisocialistic anti capitalist and Socialistic Movement. Socialism and anticapitalism have done nothing anywhere in the world including the United States to help black people. Liz lets switch gears a Boston University professor is saying the Christmas Song jingle bells is racist because of its first performance to make fun of african americans. What are your thoughts there . This is ridiculous. Thats how ridiculous this whole thing has become but getting back to the boycott a lot of young black people work at the stores so theyre hurting themselves and thats why i said when you start getting in the Christmas Carols and those sorts of things people are claiming are in the left when i say people, that theyre discriminatory or whatever that stuff is laughable. Liz sheriff to your point you look at the black lives matter website we havent seen any indication of the exact names of companies theyre suggesting you boycott. They just put the statement out there. Right. Just a general statement and thats why i said George Sorels has his fingerprints all over this and i just think its a shame because those issues that the black lives Matter Movement said they were about, you know, might have had some room for discussion but again, now its become this anti capitalism and Socialistic Movement that is not going to help black people find jobs, its not going to help black people find better schools, to send their kids to, and those are the things that are important to black people not anticapitalism. Liz david clark its so good to see you. Thank you. Liz please come back soon. Well go to break right now. Fox business is getting briefed right now weve got a reporter inside the room in washington d. C. And the details of the tax bill were being told some of the income tax tables are changing. Weve got a reporter on the stick down there well get it to you, in moments dont go away. But first the socalled internet Net Neutrality apocalypse is upon us, a lot of media fear mon gering on this and you dont have to build your fallout just yet he is the daily caller chris bedford, he debunks a lot of myths and the fake news around this, dont go away. The moment a fish is pulled out from the water, its a race against time. And keeping it in the right conditions is the best way to get that fish to your plate safely. Bacteria can multiply to high enough levels that even cooking it will not destroy all of them. Its definitely the most important thing in my business. How fresh is the fish . Where it comes from . How it gets here. The more i know, the better. Sometimes the product arrives and the cold chain has been interrupted, and we need to be able to identify where in the cold chain that occurred. We took our world Class Network and we developed devices to track environmental conditions. This device allows people to understand whats happening not only with the location of that asset, but also if its too hot, if its too cold, if its been dropped. Its completely unique. We ship fish, beef, poultry, vaccines, insulin. This is about monitoring and protecting everything we ship. I catch all this amazing, beautiful fish and then once its out of my hands, i have no control over what happens to it. If you have a sensor that can keep track of your product, it keeps everybody kind of honest that way. Its really all about the network. You are looking at trillions of transactions a year. Not too Many Companies in the world can even scale to that type of volume. Who knew a tiny sensor could help keep the food chain safe . Food has to be fresh. Its that simple. Liz republicans releasing the final version of tax cuts were in breaking news mode right now. The breaking news is happening thick and fast. They are planning to pass the plans through Congress Next week , adam shapiro he was the man inside that room. Hes got the details adam . Okay so the bill has now been filed and much of what weve reported today we can now again report to you as to whats going to happen when this becomes law. Lets first talk about the tax brackets. The seven tax brackets 10 12 22 24 , 32 , 35 and 37 , so fox business has been reporting today is accurate, whether youre a single filer or a married filer and youre filing jointly, one slight difference is among single filers in the 24 the cap will be at 157, 500 but these are now the figures for how you can determine your income tax Going Forward and of course, the 37 for married joint filers now is 600,000 and above and for a single filer at 500,000. Again, the state and local tax, the deduction that so many new yorkers and people in massachusetts, california rely on, theres a 10,000 cap now for sales, income and property tax, however you divide it up 10,000 is what people essentially in new york, california the high tax states will be able to deduct if they itemize. The Child Tax Credit again 2000 that marco rubio was able to get the threshold raised for the refundable portion of the tax credit for those who dont have a federal income tax liability, 1400. The amt, the corporate amt is gone and will be repealed. The individual amt, the thresholds to determine whether you have to fall into that are being raised and then of course it does repeal the obamacare individual mandate. A couple of other things the corporate rate 21 effective january 1, 2018, pass through top rate obviously income 37 but with a 20 reduction for companies or for people who are Small Business operators and another thing if youre buying a house, the Mortgage Interest Rate deduction has been maintained to a degree, so if you have a mortgage right now, youre grandfathered in. You keep doing what youre doing but if you buy a house next year , your mortgage interest is deductible on a first or second home up to a mortgage value of 750,000. We asked a specific question, when does that kick in . Is it upon the signing of the contract or the closing of the sale because originally the house is saying that wouldnt kick in until november. What we were told was january 1, so if youre about to buy a new home do it now if you want to maximize up to a Million Dollars in mortgage value. The bottom line is they didnt tell us if it would be contract date or closing date but it looks as if you have about two weeks to get the full 1 million thats applicable now Going Forward it will be up to 750,000 in value. Emac . Liz great reporting my friend good to see you adam. Look at that breaking news on the tax bill. Adam was inside the room with the guys who were working on the bill. Lets get to the man who by the way were waiting for chairman kevin brady to come out and talk thats why youre looking at a bank of microphones there. I want to quickly bring in art l affer on this. Great to have you on the show. You were in the room with Ronald Reagan when he was working on the tax cut package. Art we had nancy pelosi saying this is armageddon this is probably one of the worst bills ever seen not to be out done, other people said this is going to be an apocalypse. My god memories being having their taxes slashed in broad daylight. What do you make of the fear mon gering around this bill . I just love the quote isnt that just wonderful. I think the fear mongering makes no sense and i dont understand nancy pelosi. Generally speaking shes a very serious person and this type of overstatement and hyperbole doesnt do any good. The democrats most of the democrats should be voting for this, liz. Its just ridiculous theyre not and the democrats and the senate should be voting for it as well. This is kennedy. This is, i mean reagan we had co sponsors, democrat and republican of every one of our bills, so why wouldnt they do that . Liz you know, art to your point, i mean again, were looking at A Santa Claus rally the indices in the green acrosstheboard. We may get a vote done by christmas. We could see were seeing wall street shops like Goldman Sachs saying less than about a percentage point added to gdp growth youre talking 4 growth next year, will the democrats be left hung out to dry by the midterms if we do see great Economic Growth . Well i dont know if they will be or not liz. Liz if they dont vote for it they would be right . It will be great. Liz you know, theres been again reagan had a worst recession first the citigroup collapses in 1980 and he cut taxes and the economy boomed. Of course it was deficit spending. Clinton kennedy they all did the same. So tell me more about that and speak some more about how the media let me talk about one put into this bill that i just loved in fact i worked with the people there a lot and the delay feature of a tax rate reduction is absolutely a killer to the economy. The senate bill had that delay feature where the Corporate Tax rate was cut on january 1, 2019 and they rescinded that and made it 2018 which is wonderful. They have just saved the economy from having a very serious recession because of a delay. It caused the 8182 recession because we delayed it and then from january 1, 83 when the tax cuts took effect, we had incredible growth. We grew it at an annual average rate of about 8 for a year and a half. It was just amazing liz. Liz art laffer, thank you so much we wish you could come back because well be talking more about the tax cut deal and kevin brady is coming up to talk live at a bank of microphones in d. C. Good to see you again were waiting on kevin brady to take to the microphone with more details about the tax cut bill he is a tax architect in the house. Hes about to speak, we will bring you kevin brady as soon as he comes out. Stay right there, dont go away. I accept i dont bike as far as i used to. I even accept i have a higher risk of stroke due to afib, a type of irregular heartbeat not caused by a heart valve problem. But no matter where i ride, i go for my best. So if theres Something Better than warfarin, ill go for that too. Eliquis. Eliquis reduced the risk of stroke better than warfarin, plus had less major bleeding than warfarin. Eliquis had both. Dont stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily. And it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Im still going for my best. And for eliquis. Ask your doctor about eliquis. Liz again we are waiting for representative kevin brady, he is the architect in the house of the tax cut plan, he will approach that bank of microphones momentarily to talk about the details. We gave the details at the top of the hour. Were in breaking news mode lets get to the Daily Caller News Foundation editor in chief crist bedford. Chris, whats the biggest myth about this tax cut plan now that you see . The biggest myth about it . Liz yeah. I would say its going to hurt American Families or hurt the American Economy or hurt the deficit. Now some people disagree on economics of whether or not cutting taxes and unleashing the economic beast of the United States impacts deficit maybe some of the democrats disagree. I was shocked to see some of the republicans say that they disagreed with that and they werent ready to back that but even those people like senator bob corker came on at the last minute and said theyre willing to support this and weve seen small changes a 1 increase in the Corporate Tax rate getting rid of the corporate amt, alternative minimum tax for corporations increasing the child care credit with marco rubio which was a dangerous game of chicken. Liz stay right there. Weve got kevin brady. Stay right there chris, here is kevin brady. Good evening, everyone. So we have filed the bill, the report the tax cuts and jobs act in the house. This means that the text of this new tax reform bill will become public now and the American People will be able to assess the impact of a new tax code. My point is this. We deserve, americans deserve a new tax code for new era of american prosperity. Thats exactly what the tax cuts and jobs about does. Over the weekend and as we head to the vote, well also be able to finally, because the house and Senate Versions were different, families, Small Businesses, and frankly our local businesses that cop pete around the world will now have a bill to analyze and embrace and so im very excited about this moment. It has been 31 years in the making and took a lot of hard work by a lot of people to make this day happen. Im proud of the tax cuts and jobs act. With that be glad to take some questions. Reporter when this started you were talking about four brackets filing on a postcard simplicity. It doesnt look like that any more. So with the standard deduction nearly doubled and a number of those provisions the postcard still remains. Are there a few more items on it sure but that was, that was what the process we wanted. We said from the very beginning this isnt our tax code. It belongs to the American People and it does so in the house we really took it down, the foundation and began to rebuild it the way the American People want it in the 21st century, not 30 or 50 years ago. We listened, our lawmakers listened to their constituents, families and businesses, and this tax reform reflects the priorities of the American People. Reporter mr. Chairman, the idea that you had to expand these brackets on both the corporate and personal side here and raising for some of those brackets fell was part of that because you had to fit into the reconciliation rules on the senate for closing the deficit and thats why some of those areas went up especially on the first and seventh. So the rates went down in the family brackets to provide more tax relief. One of the reasons were going to have very strong middle class tax relief but were also going to have tax relief for families who live in these high tax states. We made that commitment to our salt lawmakers. We will improve the bill and we achieved that and we now have a 10,000 deduction for salt taxes families can fill it up with the way they need for their families we have a lower top bracket, really a key ask by lawmakers in salt states but those help everybody in america, as well and then we did achieve even more middle class tax relief and so all that was done to drive tax relief for everyone regardless of where they live. Reporter but that wasnt why some of that changed . No absolutely not. That was continuing to lower the brackets and lower the rates, make sure we want people to keep more of what they earn wherever they live and we achieved that. Reporter sir can you talk about the timeline of who goes first, the house, the senate . And also what about senator, does that mean the senate has control now . Well i always leave the timing in the vote to schedule for our leadership. I do know well be returning monday and to begin the rules process. The votes in the house and senate will occur after that and the timing ill leave sequence to our speaker and leader and yes, i do predict both the house and senate will aprove this tax reform bill. Lots of momentum building. Reporter can you discuss some of the revenue raises there were to make room for those changes . Well i would direct you, we will have joint committee on taxation. Well lay out the revenue tables here shortly. What youll see is that they were adjustments made throughout the whole tax reform bill. There wasnt any one or two provisions that allowed us to stay under the 1. 5 trillion. It really was a combination of different adjustments in different areas which we think is the most balanced way to do it. Reporter will people see a slight increase . Look, i think, no. I know everyones lives will be better off under tax reform because of the tax relief families get, because of the higher paychecks, because we have a stronger economy and again, this is all about also bringing back jobs from overseas , which if we had not acted now we would continue to see our headquarters, our research, our manufacturing and our jobs leave the country and so the combination of that will raise paychecks and allow you to keep more of what you earn. Maybe and this isnt really talked about much, but we need a tax code for our local businesses can compete and win anywhere in the world including here at home. We achieved that. Reporter directionally when you made changes in general first, did you go more towards the senate bill or split the difference between the senate and the house bill . So we took the best of both ideas and here in many cases because we had a deliberate timetable we had announced half a year ago to get this through the president s desk we took the text that was closest to where we thought we would end and from that standpoint, its sort of a mix of the house and the senate the way it should be. There are always at the end of these major negotiations several changes that have to occur. We did it, like theres no one that had to be done at the end. Thank you. Reporter so what did you do for puerto rico . So the major puerto rico provision that we had pushed which was to create and make them eligible for opportunity zones to help them rebuild an Economic Development ultimately did not pass the bird test in the senate and so the speaker and i have decided to put that provision on the supplemental after speaking with delegate gonzalez to help continue to rebuild puerto rico. I think more can be done as well but i think this is important. We are just absolutely committed to helping that island rebuild. Reporter did you make the first or Second Channel eligible for the Child Tax Credit . Not yet. Reporter assuming this does just pass in time before the end of the year, when do you think regular people will feel it . Yeah, so there are two important things happening. One, after the first of the year , workers will be able to see a new table so they can decide withholding figures so you can choose to get your tax relief early in the year or you could keep them as they are and take them in the next tax filing system. Thats one key thing. I think maybe the most important element people arent yet thinking about is this april 15th, when you file your taxes, that is the last time you will file under this monstrous broken tax code. In future years you will see a tax code thats built for growth , leapfrogs america back and frankly lets keep people keep more of what they earn. Reporter one more question. There is a concern about how quickly this bill was written. Are you confident that as written it wont require anything afterwards and if it does, do you think democrats will come on board as well . So, i cant anticipate, i cant imagine any major under taking like this that doesnt require technical corrections in the future, and because some of these policy changes really are Game Changing for america, for example, no longer taxing you here and taxing you abroad allowing companies to bring their earnings to be reinvested back in our communities and our manufacturing plants and research at a zero tax rate, all these are major changes so i anticipate work to continue on tax reform in the International Area for example, but also im still convinced and members are as well, we can do even more to improve this tax code, so im hopeful democrat who have always said theyre for tax reform but today defending the status quo i hope they rethink that and work with us to improve the code. Thank you. Liz well that was kevin brady tax details now released lets bring in the panel independent womens forum patrice leon wooka, eric hes still saying this is a code that is geared for growth whats your thought . I think that its geared for entrepreneurial bliss. I mean this is going to be an incredible next few years with this plan and i think what it does is it sends a very clear message to ceos that you can keep a lot more and now you can plan to use it. You can plan to put it into play , you can be far more strategic and it says something also to Companies Overseas and investors overseas that now it makes sense to invest, to bring your companies over here, to not put them overseas, to not ship your jobs over to if youre a u. S. Company, not ship it over to china. Liz thats right because the rate keep it here put it in pittsburgh. Liz by the way the corporate rate cut begins january 1 there was a fear it was delayed. Patrice lets get to the individual side. Acrosstheboard rate cuts and state and local Tax Deductions still there, capped at 10k. What do you say . I think this is great for workers and great for families and women. I mean when you consider not just theyre getting a tax cut but youre seeing an increase in the child Tax Deduction and for those who are poor and middle income americans, theyre going to be able to see more of that Child Tax Credit refunded to them so i think theres a lot of benefits that American Workers and women and families can look forward to. Keeping more of what they earn is a really big message and i think thats going to resonate very well. Liz chris you watch the d. C. Media Beltway Echo Chamber a lot of negativity in it against this tax bill. What are your thoughts there . Well a lot of the d. C. Echo chamber and i live in it, d. C. Is 95 democrat and Northern Virginia is solidly democrat its where all of the reporters live and generally buy the democratic talking question and repeat them but also republicans typically havent been that great. Theyve been kind of eating up the democratic talking points and saying no, it doesnt hurt the poor, no it doesnt hurt the middle class but what they should be saying and some of them are, is this is great for the poor, its great for the middle class and the only way were going to really unleash the American Economic engine is by getting Corporate Tax rate, other tax rates in line with the rest of the developed world. Liz to get job growth and eric, you know, the standard deduction doubles it increases the number of people who pay zero federal income taxes probably above 50 and it looks like you could do it on a postcard is the breaking news out of kevin brady. Ron widen attacking it saying that its the worst thing hes seen and will be bad for the middle class. Your thoughts . Well, theyre searching for anything they can do to make this political but this is so great for businesses and so great for investment and so great for jobs, because ive got to tell you as the ceo and knowing friends that are ceos they wanted to ship jobs overseas because it was cheaper. Now, it makes so much more sense this is fabulous. Liz weve got to go. Great for america. Liz the gop tax cut details are out, patrice, eric and chris thank you so much and thank you for watching, thanks for having us in your home. Charles payne is here now with making money.
