Big, yes. Beautiful, no. Donald Trump’s regressive bill
Description
Congress dutifully passed Donald Trump’s $4 trillion tax and policy bill, despite many members’ reservations about its cost. Congressional leaders crammed all of Trump’s priorities into it, but the bill will cause millions of people in lower-income brackets to lose their health insurance and damage the foundations of America’s economy.
John Prideaux hosts with Charlotte Howard and Idrees Kahloon.
