b*****d 发帖数: 61690 | 1 Two Republican senators, Ron Johnson (Wis.) and Bob Corker (Tenn.), are
threatening to vote against the GOP tax reform bill in the Senate Budget
Committee on Tuesday unless changes are made to address their concerns.
Corker and Johnson's primary issues with the legislation are different:
Corker fears predicted deficit increases if the measure is passed, while
Johnson worries the bill does not do enough to help small businesses.
Another Republican, Sen. Steve Daines (Mont.), who is not on the budget
panel, has also said he cannot support the legislation in its current form.
Like Johnson, Daines fears the bill will leave "pass-through businesses,"
whose income is taxed through the individual tax code, with a higher rate
than other firms. |
