These GOP Senators Fought for the Death Estate Tax to Please Donors in All Likelihood
December 8, 2017
The Senate tax reform bill does not repeal the “death” estate tax conservatives and libertarians have long opposed, apparently because of at least three Republican senators. All three are among many who have received donations from insurance companies benefiting from the tax.
Mike Rounds
The House repealed it but Senators McCain, Collins and Rounds opposed repeal according to a source. They said they were open to keeping the death tax and they have received donations from insurance companies.
Collins and McCain were specifically responsible according to a source of The Daily Caller’s.

Illinois Rep. Adam Kinzinger became the first congressional Republican to call for Rep. Matt Gaetz’s resignation amid a growing investigation that he had sex with a minor and violated sex trafficking laws.
“Matt Gaetz needs to resign,” Kinzinger tweeted late Thursday, attaching a Daily Beast report that the Florida Republican used Venmo to pay an alleged sex trafficker $900 in 2018. The report adds that the recipient, Joel Greenberg, transferred sums of money totaling $900 to teenaged girls.
Greenberg is reportedly seeking a plea deal with prosecutors, and faces dozens of federal charges.
