GOP's Tax Bill Met With Major Backlash

Description

According to a Quinnipiac poll, twenty-six percent of voters approve of the GOP's tax reform bill, while 55 percent disapprove. In addition, Priorities USA, a Democratic super PAC, says there are dips in Republican House incumbents' ratings after voters were shown ads online about the plan. Republican and Democratic strategists say that the GOP has little choice but to move forward with the legislation. Steve Israel, a former New York Rep. and chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, says, "Republicans are caught between probably losing their majority by passing no bill and possibly losing their majority by passing a bad bill."
