Tax code. The bill will be unveiled. President trump wants to sign it into law before christmas. But two gop senators are wavering, two others are hospitalized. And lawmakers wont find out until later today, what it all will cost. Nancy cordes has the the story. Its not perfect. But damn good. Republicans say the hardest part is behind them now that they crafted compromise between the house and senate tax bills. The time plan preserves deduction for Student Loans and medical expenses targeted in previous bills and doubles the standard deduction which says republicans will enable millions of taxpayers to stop itemizing. This gives a simpler system and fair tax code. Residents of high tax states could get squeezed. The plan caps the deduction for state and local income tax plus property tax at 10,000 a year. And, it lowers the mortgage deduction cap. From new loans worth 1 million to 750,000. It is a monumental con job. Republicans say they make up for the changes by lowering the marginal tax rate at every income level. And, by preventing the dreaded alternative minimum tax from hitting everyone but the highest earners. The tax bill today a pair of gop senators balked because the bill only hikes the Child Tax Credit by 100. A big backtrack from the senates previous bill. Unless they can figure out a way to add to 1,100 figure, i wont support the bill. I think that senator rubio will be there. For sure. President trump called the plan a christmas present. But democrats argue it is mostly a gift to big business. Permanently slashing the Corporate Tax rate from 35 to 21 without cutting many corporate loopholes. Other hand are temporary. And obamas care individual mandate eliminated which could boost the number of uninsured americans. Premium tax credit.
