year. the senate unveiled its plan. kpix 5's jackie ward explains. reporter: it's being touted as a bill to offer billions of dollars in tax cuts but one that was most likely to raise federal taxes for californians. the senate version creates 7 tax brackets instead of 4, fully eliminates the deduction for state and local taxes, preserves deduction for home mortgage interest and high medical expenses and delays the reduction in the corporate tax rate from 35% to 20% until 2019 senate republicans need nearly every party member to vote for this bill because democrats do not support it. >> when a party rolls out a legislative plan there should be trumpets and bands but the public knows already that the bill favors the wealthy. >> reporter: on the other side of thecapital, house republicans made last-minute changes to their bill before sending it to the floor. tax policy center a nonpartisan think tank in washington estimates by the end of the decade, more than a quarter of individual taxpayers roughly 38 million people would see their taxes go up. in california, more than a third of us use the deduction that the bill will eliminate. on average they get an $18,000 deduction from their federal taxes. if the full house and senate passed the bills, a conference committee would need to resolve the differences between the two versions. in the newsroom, jackie ward,

here in gilroy say speeding is a major problem. so they are looking at all options including giving everyday people the power that right now only police have, using radar guns to catch speeders. it is an idea that was proposed by gilroy's mayor training resident civilians to use a radar gun. these people would check out the guns from police, work in pairs, and then turn violators in to police. officers would then send the vehicle's registered owner a warning. >> speeding is happening all over the city, and we cannot hire enough police officers just to do enforcement. >> reporter: now, this idea is in the very preliminary stages. it's going to be discussed at a city council meeting on monday. the mayor says the police department may come back to say this plant won't work. it is in effect in a couple of places across the u.s., like rockville, maryland and cheyenne, wyoming. live in gilroy, anne makovec, kpix 5. thank you. time now 6:47. we have a "sig alert" in the south bay. >> this is causing big delays for drivers. what should typically take 10 minutes for drivers, we are tracking delays that are building up to close to 45 minutes. and the travel time continues to climb. that's all due to this crash blocking three lanes. northbound 101 just past embarcadero road. traffic is backed up to 237 at this time. so right now, actually, we are tracking a delay of over 1 hour. again, 76 minutes, normally takes 10 minutes with no traffic. you're not going to want to get on 101 this morning heading into palo alto. if you want to use el camino or 280, those are your best bets. and moving at the limit. but el camino is much slower with stop lights so give yourself some extra time heading out the door. no estimated time as to when the lanes will re-open. past that, 101, this is near sfo, 380, you can see traffic doing just fine in both directions. the roadways a little slick, a little wet. if you are making your way across the golden gate bridge, you can see that sheen on the pavement so be careful. take it slow. but speeds moving at the limit in both directions along that route. not the same over at the richmond/san rafael bridge. we have the backups developing along 580 near marina bay parkway over to sir francis drake. about a 15-minute ride. bay bridge toll plaza, 17 minutes from the maze into san francisco. and your drive times look like this. highway 37 seeing the usual slowdowns. 680 in the yellow. not too bad. and your ride heading through the south bay from hellyer to san antonio just under an hour and again, another little over an hour as you make your way into palo alto. so again, avoid 101. that's my advice for the day. let's send it on over to julie for a check on the forecast. >> that's generally my advice to everybody in the bay area. just avoid 101. your life will be easier. we are looking at showers out there on hi-def doppler this morning. we definitely see the heaviest rainfall in the north bay to start but we are seeing some
