Maybe someone should tell people like Rubio, Collins, and Flake that they have more leverage if they wait to vote until after Doug Jones is seated.

It’s fun to live in a fantasy land where more than 1-2 senators have firm principles, but I don’t think this will lead anywhere. And I REALLY don’t think folks like Rubio are actually willing to vote against the bill if they think it will cause the bill to fail.

Nobody seriously thinks Rubio is actually a no. Except for maybe Chum. This is the last scrum to see what people can wring out before they all fall in line.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, K-State fans could have beheaded the entire KU team at midcourt, and K-State fans would be celebrating it this morning.  They are the ISIS of Big 12 fanbases.

Actually, it's more about Rubio's presidential aspirations.

KSUW isn't really a "big picture" kind of guy.  His entire universe revolves around him, and him alone.  So him answering questions outside of him is a lost cause.

700 club talking really positive about the tax cuts (and very negative about the Mueller investigation).

Yup, much like the healthcare bill, but Obama had to buy off like six or seven.

Rubio just received his expansion of the CTC so folks who already owed no FIT get a bigger chunk "refunded." Bill set to be finalized this afternoon.

You don't get the CTC if you don't owe federal income tax, K-S-U.

You don't need to get insurance now. Just wait until you get sick and then get it.

You are only eligible for the credit if the credit is less than the amount of taxes you owe.

I mean, I suppose you are technically correct in that the refundable portion is a different credit with the name "Additional" Child Tax Credit.
