Washington • Senate Finance Committee Chairman Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, said Wednesday that it’s “highly unlikely” the Senate would vote after the election on President Donald Trump’s new proposal for a 10 percent middle-class tax cut.
Hatch said it would require "monumental effort" for the Senate to pass any such proposal. He added, "I've seen miracles happen before."
Hatch also told reporters on Capitol Hill that he had few details of the proposal, which his committee would be charged with shepherding. Trump's idea took lawmakers by surprise when the president first discussed it over the weekend.
