Do sit hearing in 2017. I am going to bet you that the house is more republican and the senate is more republican as a result of the midterm elections right now. The senate could be. Lou we have a bet . And well set the terms of that bet. Would you like him in on this action . Ed no, i just want to watch. Lou you are such a careful man. Ed hes a journalist he has to wait for the facts before he writes them. Michael i spent my life in daily newspapers. Lou this president i think has the wind at his back. I think the Republican Party does, and the national leftwing media are just about to discover how strong a wind that is. Well continue here in just a moment, and what do we want to do here because we are waiting on developments because first of course for the senate later tonight to pass the thanks reform legislation. House has passed as i said the first Major Overhaul of the tax system since 1986. And i keep hearing producer who are so faint that i had no idea we are going to chad pergram. Vice president pence will be breaking a tie if need be. Fox news senior producer for fox news, chad pergrom. We are about 3 1 2 hours away from the vote in the senate. This will pass. We dont know the position of jeff flake, the senator from arizona. He voted yes a couple weeks ago. With 99 senators voting. John mccain is absent. They dont expect Vice President pence to have to break the tie. Even though this has to go back to the house of representatives tomorrow, they have passed this bill no matter what. You may have heard chanting and roaring. There are a lot of protesters in the capital protesting against the tax bill. There were several arrests and we might have some arrests later tonight when they go to that vote about 11 30. Lou how long before the vote did you say . We are thinking around 11 30. I am told they are booked for speakers on the floor until 11 00. Close to 11 30 they will start the second part of the vote. The time nusmght s. Senate is not swift. They allot 15 minutes for a vote. Injury and booking times it will stretch out to 1525 minutes. Lou is there anything besides a simple test of stamina requiring them to book speakers . You make it sound as if a great public demand is being met. How many speakers are there . This is a chance for senators to get up and talk on the floor. They didnt get the bill until 3 30, 4 00. That set into motion 10 hours of debate. A bill of this magnitude could cake severals if not weeks. Senators can talk and certainly senators from both sides of the aisle are having their say on the senate floor. Lou i cannot make out who is at the lectern. Senator Sherrod Brown. Democrat of ohio. Hes in play this year 2018. Swing state. Midterm. Lou hes going through the most of interesting antics with the low arm movements. I cannot make out what hes doing. But his jess i cue thraition is first rate. I dont know about this rhetoric or his speech. Perhaps hes imitating bob feller from the 50s. Lou the problem with that is hes not coming over the top as i recall those pitchers determined to do. Chad, he will be back with more baseball, more Sherrod Brown and i suspect a lot of other folks in the course of this evening. Bob scel a and herb score, too. Lou our next guest says tax reform will deliver americans the tax reform they voted for last november. Congressman mark meadows is the chairman of the freedom caucus. Its great to see you. Congratulations. Its great to be with you. We are just a few hours away from an historical moment on the senate floor. But as it comes back and you have been reporting on that this evening. As it koments comes back to the house tomorrow, as it comes back to the house tomorrow. You will see jubilation as we vote once again in the house tomorrow. Lou do you find there could be Great Universal justice in the fact Sherrod Brown is opposite you on the screen . He is going through antic after antic. I love his enthusiasm for whatever it is hes saying. As you dominate the conversation with whatever you wish. You are very kind there, lou. One of the great things, about all Sherrod Brown can do is make a lot of antics on the senate floor because we have the votes to make sure we allow the american taxpayer to put more of their own money back in their pocket to spend. The votes are going to happen. I was with the president today. Hes excited about signing this into law. He believes not only is he delivering on a campaign promise. But hes been actively engaged personally to sell this to members in the house and senate. If anybody under estimates the ability of this president to get things done, he looks no further than this historic moment on tax reform. Lou im told by one of our producers that Sherrod Brown is talking about the allocation of the tax cuts which i infer to mean 23 of the total tax cuts going to the middle class. Sherrod browns seems enthusiastic about that. I would say since he is a big critic of the president and the plan. Well, sherrod has another election hes running for. I can tell you i have talked to manufacturers in his home stated who are so excited about the fact they will be bringing jobs back from overseas to the United States because of this particular tax bill. But its also those middle income wage earners. What they will be able to do is see relief and real tax cuts. I find it interesting we have to change the name of the tax bill because of a parliamentarian on the senate side. I have never seen that to be something that would be under the purview of a parliamentarian. But we are changing the name of the tax bill. What we perhaps need to say is this is about cuts cuts cuts and making sure the American People benefit in an unbelievable way like never before. Lou one of the things im getting a kick out of. Customer rod brown Sherrod Brown is standing there talking engagingly and he keeps back up toward the double doors, then he goes back and even opened the door as if there is something behind that door that we need to know about or perhaps is about to enter through those double doors. The suspense is amazing. Perhaps hes going to bring in a prop to the senate floor to describe what nancy pelosi did earlier on the house floor. Its all about his message, a message they roll out each and every year saying its only going to benefit those at the top of the income bracket. I can tell you thats noted the facts. Someone who makes 73,000 a year, their average tax cut will be over 2,000 back in their pocket. Its all rhetoric. The campaign of politics, give to one, take away from another. This will be good across the board. Lou why would we not open up the screen to congressman meadows in its entirety so we could conclude our discussion without the distraction of the senator who is note microphoned and frankly i am tiger of trying to divine his intent and his message. Hes done a brilliant job of it. Live tv. You are getting it first. Just a few hundred feet from me is Sherrod Brown going through his antics. I will try to make sense of it from here. But its hard to make sense of what the senate does. Generally they take more naps than votes. Lou if you are going to pile on the senate even before they vote, a man of courage you are. Well listen in this law isolated instance. Its great to see you, congratulations on a great day. By the way, i picked this up with chairman brady. There is no chance you all organized this parliamentarian shift in the senate so you could get another vote for tax cuts or as kevin brady it, the on thing better than voting for tax cuts once is voting on it twice. We knew there may be two or three small glitches. They are not fatal to the bill. The administration was aware of that. For the American People and the markets, tomorrow midday well be signing this and sending this bill on to 1600 pennsylvania avenue. Lou we watch the market like hawks here. And im look for some considerable celebratory rallies in the markets tomorrow across equity, bond, commodities, futures, you name it. I love this. I love congratulating the heck out of you guys. Lou the push for historic tax cuts goes on. The bill is going to pass and go to the president as is. This is significant thanks relief. And equally important we are going to give American Business a chance to compete globally. Lou we take it up with steve forbes. How important is this vote to american competitiveness and our destiny.

All but while some push High Commission investment products, Fisher Investments avoids them. Some advisers have hidden and layered fees. Fisher investments never does. And while some advisers are happy to earn commissions from you whether you do well or not, Fisher Investments fees are structured so we do better when you do better. Maybe thats why most of our clients come from other money managers. Fisher investments. Clearly better money management. Lou joining me now force media chairman editorinchief, steve forbes. Well see the senate vote through as the house has already, tax reform, tax cuts, the largest since the economic recovery act of 1986. Some of us go back that far. How big a difference do you think its going to make to the markets and economy. We are look at the most of recent reading on the 4th quarter gdp. Its right under 4 . Steve what this bill will do is well get revving up business investment. In order to have a higher standard of living you have to invest more. This socalled recovery of Barack Obamas marked by tepid investment. Consumers will get a boost, business will get a boost and this will mean in the next two or three years, wages will go up. Not only will most of people keep know what they earn, but their paycheck is going to go up. Its called raises. Something we havent had a lot. Lou wages moving up 2 over the course of the last year. But the trump effect on this economy, we need to see sustained wage growth and sustained job creation and we need to see the middle class moving up, growing, not contracting as it has the past 20 years. You are going to see that. People dropped out of the workforce will start to come back in. You will read more stories about labor shortages. Oh, the fed, is the economy getting too hot. Lou the president is fully appreciative. The impact of his call for the building of that wall on the southern border, constraining immigration into this country when we need to do with building jobs for americans, hire america, buy american and america first. Steve you are going to see when this economy really novels, thats why they are going to have to beef up the border. You are going to see more people trying to get into this economy. Lou well see the impact of it. We saw that 2001. We saw job creation the most tepid in the face after tax cut. We saw the export of manufacturing jobs that are now returning under trump. Because of the influx of Illegal Immigrants who were competing for urn skilled positions within our economy of and the result was testify id. Hiring for americans. Steve what you are going to see now, getting this Corporate Tax rate down to 21. You will start to see immigrants coming in. You will see some of that. But capital flowing in. We have the best economy in the world. The best legal system in the world. Lou you are talking about a meritocracy bringing in skilled, educated migrants who would augment our work force. Steve yes, and we know who they are. But in terms of the economy, we need an investment boom. This is a step to it. Amazingly the past couple days, the bill got better. They took out a lot of bad junk. They had in the house provision 20 tax for companies that brought in stuff from overseas make their stuff here at home. It wasnt suppose to still be in there. On the house side, well name no names tonight because we are in a celebratory mood. But they took it out. And thats a good thing. On the individual side, and thats what i hope President Trump says when he signs this bill. This is a down payment. Well do far more for individuals in the next rounds. Lou one of the great surprise and i delights after he waiting most of people of is they do not appreciate what the president has created here, the repatriation of capital at a rate that will be good for the treasury, for corporate investment, investment in if equipment in this country. Its going to be powerful. Very powerful. Steve its will be powerful. With these low rates there will be every incentive to put the money to work instead of just buying back stock. Making capital, putting capital on steroids. Maybe i shouldnt say that word. Lou heads are only a problem if you are playing amateur sports. Steve forbes, great to see you. Steve ill be staying up tonight. I want to see this happen. Lou im going to stay up as much as i possibly can. Up next, republicans looking to deliver President Trump a victory on taxes.

Even for a nurse, its complicated. And it puts me at higher risk of stroke. That would be devastating. I had to learn all i could to help protect myself. Once i got the facts, my doctor and i chose xarelto®. Xarelto®. To help keep me protected. Oncedaily xarelto®, a latestgeneration blood thinner. Significantly lowers the risk of stroke in people with afib not caused by a heart valve problem. It has similar effectiveness to warfarin. Xarelto® works differently. Warfarin interferes with at least 6 bloodclotting factors. Xarelto® is selective, targeting just one critical factor interacting with less of your bodys natural bloodclotting function. For afib patients wellmanaged on warfarin, there is limited information on how xarelto® compares in reducing the risk of stroke. Dont stop taking xarelto® without talking to your doctor, as this may increase risk of stroke. While taking, you may bruise more easily, or take longer for bleeding to stop. It may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. Xarelto® can cause serious, and in rare cases, fatal bleeding.
