The GOP tax heist is NOT a sure thing
This bill still has TWO very important hurdles to jump.
The House and Senate passed different versions of the bill. Before a bill can go to the White House to be signed, the EXACT VERSION must pass the House and the Senate. Since the House originated this one, and passed their version first, the Senate now has to send their version back to the House who will then call a CONFERENCE COMMITTEE. This is where the differences between the House and Senate versions are theoretically ironed out until there is one bill with language the House and Senate can
agree on.
So the version that comes out of Conference Committee must be voted on AGAIN! BOTH THE HOUSE AND SENATE HAVE TO VOTE ON THE BILL AGAIN.
----------
Here is Beth's Plan:
PUT PRESSURE ON THE HOUSE MEMBERS. If they get public push-back, they may start to get nervous because EVERY SEAT in the House of Representatives is up for re-election in 2018. So any R voting for this knows s/he may face *very* angry voters in less than a year. Every horrible thing we find in the bill as we read it over the weekend can be laid right at the feet of Republicans.
