Susan Collins, R-Maine, to support tax reform. But while President Trump and Senate GOP leadership gave support for the bills, such a commitment in the House has been lacking.
Cole, a member of the House’s whip team, said the two bills are going to be a tough sell to Republican as they’re currently written. [ Source: Washington Examiner (Read More…) ]
