Senate Republicans Cool to Tax Plan Proposal

“Senate GOP leaders are facing early pushback over a key plank of their ‘big, beautiful bill’ just hours after rolling it out, underscoring the work that remains to bring the legislation to the floor next week,” Politico reports.

“The briefing Monday was designed to explain the panel’s rationale, answer questions and alleviate any anxieties. But immediate reaction from lawmakers across the ideological spectrum upon that meeting’s conclusion indicated leadership has a ways to go — especially as Republicans still hope to meet their self-imposed July Fourth deadline for clearing the larger bill for Trump’s signature.”
