Senate panel approves GOP tax plan

Source: The Hill

The Senate Finance Committee late Thursday approved the chamber’s GOP tax bill, after the House passed its measure earlier in the day.

The panel voted to send the tax plan to the full Senate on a party-line vote of 14-12.
...
The bill, as modified by Finance Committee Chairman Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) during the four-day markup, would temporarily cut taxes for individuals while permanently slashing the corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 20 percent. It also would repeal ObamaCare’s individual mandate.

The individual tax cuts would expire after 2025 in order to comply with a rule that requires the bill to not increase the deficit after 10 years if it is to pass the full Senate on a party-line vote.

Some senators need to get peeled off this. They need to think "I will never get elected again if I pass this dogshit".
