Tax plan. 25% approve. how do you plan to win over more fans of this tax reform? >> by explaining whats in it. i had three priorities when we entered into tax reform and tax cuts. first was to provide a tax cut to the middle class, so people could keep more of their own money in their own pocket. we do that in our tax plan. we provide for a child tax credit. we double the standardized deductions. people are going to be able to keep more of their own money. secondly, we want to make sure small bu...

President trump visited capitol hill. he encouraged republicans to pass the $1.5 trillion legislation. it would lower corporate and individual tax rates and it would repeal the alternative minimum tax and eventually repeal the estate tax and would eliminate or reduce certain credits and deductions including student loan interest, home mortgage interest, medical expenses, and teacher expenses, making those things less affordable and at the top of the hour were expecting a white house briefing. it...

Deductions. hold on, gentlemen. i want to get the facts out there. what austin is talking about are the itemized deductions. my medical bills are over $7,000 a year, and i can write that off and that goes away, and the republicans are betting the standard deduction being doubled will eliminate that. >> obamacare is a tax cut for poor people and democrats are against that. the other big one, the biggest paid for in the bill, by the way, by far is getting rid of the state and local tax deduction. ...

Tax cuts. >> making things more difficult, three other senators susan collins, jeff flake and bob corker still on the fence. so, to answer your question, come full circle here, ainsley. it looks like the house is going to pass it today. there are going to be problems in the senate after thanksgiving. steve: time to negotiate. all right, griff, thank you very much. and what senator johnson who got a call by the way from the president last night, what he wants is corporations are going to get thei...

I dont think we should be directing it at classes. the purpose of the tax cut as speaker ryan was talking about is not just to leave people more money in their pockets, which is a good thing. but it is also to have a tax system that encourages economic growth. the best thing you could do for middle class families is to have growth. it is like several thousand raise each year. we seem to lose that. for example, on the corporate side, the reason theyre doing this is to make the united states globa...

Tax cut right away, year one. [ applause ] if youre one of those americans who say you dont have $500 to go to an emergency, this really helps you. lets talk about people who itemize taxes, who live in high-tax states. lets talk about a couple making $115,000. living in a high-tax state. lets say theyve got $8,400 in a mortgage interest payment and $6900 for property taxes for the year. they can still write all of those off under this plan and they will still see a tax cut of $1,130. if theyve g...

From new york districts primarily who have been very frustrated with decisions around the deductions that affect states with high state and local taxes. so that is definitely an underlying issue. they clearly dont feel that that is going to jeopardize final passage. this is, to a certain extent, huge sailing. however, on the senate side, and that really is, of course -- and especially for members of the house, a huge frustration that they feel like they get things done here and they go to the se...

Kill the bill. >> on the senate side, orrin hatch rolled out changes to the dropped individual and 32%. >> these rate reductions along with the additional expansion of the child tax credit will let us channel even more tax relief to the middle class. >> the lower individual rates would end after ten years. the corporate tax lowered from 35% to 20% would be permanent. no deductions for settlement, payout or attorney fees related to sexual harassment or sexual abuse if the payments are subject to ...

Will not vote for this in the house including new york congressman peter king. he is up next. and on why he is throwing down the gauntlet over those state and local deductions. people would stare. psoriasis does that. it was tough getting out there on stage. i wanted to be clear. i wanted it to last. so i kept on fighting. i found something that worked. and keeps on working. now? they see me. see me. see if cosentyx could make a difference for you- cosentyx is proven to help people with moderate...

Probably see higher taxes as a way to pay for a 20% corporate tax rate. theres no other way to look at it. there were also winners and losers and other things, like the family tax credit. spending $650 billion on the family tax credit, that is great for families. if you dont have kids, you dont get that benefit. depending on where you work, where you live, whether or not you have children will all dictate what your tax return looks like. the truth is is this is a $1.5 trillion plan. they have on...
