GOP Tax Plan: House to Vote Shortly on Tax Overhaul

The Senate will vote on the tax bill "later this evening," Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R., Ky.) said as the chamber opened Tuesday morning.

With the House likely to vote by 2 p.m. ET Tuesday, the Senate's action will clear the last hurdle on the bill and send it to President Donald Trump's desk.

The House is getting ready to vote shortly. House Speaker Paul Ryan is on the floor right now, making the case for the overhaul.
