the house floor after that. the senate will be moving it concurrently on that week and as you noted, they want this done, at least from each chamber, by thanksgiving, signed into law by christmas. that s speed that you just simply can t imagine for major legislation like this, but why are they moving it this quickly? one senior gop aid put it like this, the longer we leave this out there, it s just going to get whacked, we ll get whacked. they understand. this is complicated. this is rief with potential problems, that s why they re going to try to move as fast as possible, jake. phil matingly, thanks so much. joining me now, elizabeth warren of massachusetts, she serves on the banking committee in the senat senate. senator warren, thanks for being here. $1200 for the average family of four. middle income folks will that will allow them to pay for gas, pay down debt, renovate their homes, save for retirement. i know you oppose the part of this bill that goes to corporate america, co
