Breaking News: After late changes, the Republicans' $1.5 trillion tax plan has the votes to pass. Senators Marco Rubio and Bob Corker just backed it.

As details emerged about the final bill, it became clear that the agreement would provide slightly more generous tax breaks to low- and middle-income Americans by reducing some benefits for higher earners, one of several tweaks intended to solve the budget problems standing between the bill’s passage and President Trump’s desk, according to people briefed on the final plan.

Lawmakers plan to vote next week with the aim of getting a bill to Mr. Trump by Christmas.

11am.....It does add more to the deficit. Less taxes means less money to the government......if government spending doesn’t go down (and it isn’t) the deficit goes UP.

Not rocket science.
