Reporter but democrats, including our own representatives in california called the bill a middleclass tax scam that favors the rich. This is the worst bill to ever come to the floor of the house. With stiff competition for what some tried to do, the worst bill in history. 2 million in california stand to lose their state and local deductions if the republicans succeed.

Weve heard congresswoman lee talk about it too, how there is a cap now, a 10,000 cap on how much you can deduct for property taxes, state taxes, and local taxes, which could really hurt us because this is a high tax state in california, and it could offset some of the tax cuts that people in california are getting.
