The bathroom while the aircraft is sitting on the tarmac. Ive purchased this picture. Were going to discuss this outside. Not here, outside. What delta is saying about the incident this morning. And coming to life oh, my god the moment these families got the shock of a lifetime, crossing the real captain jack sparrow. Johnny depp swinging his sword for the ultimate swash buckling surprise. And good morning, america. Lets see that again. Johnny depp at disneyland right there giving a lot of families a pretty great surprise. Lucky families. He recited lines from like his character from the movie, and they had an incredible time. Could you imagine taking your kids there . No. That would be a moment. Were also following that breaking news for you this morning. This is the house in delaware where a dramatic standoff has been going on for almost an entire day. Well have the latest on that in just a moment. Yeah, lots of big stories out of washington as well. The white house of course has released that onepage outline of President Trumps tax plan saying there are more details to come. Clearly it will be one of the biggest tax cuts in history. We talk with the treasure secretary in a moment. And a possible Health Care Deal getting some traction in the house. And the money needed to run the federal government runs out at midnight tomorrow. Republicans introduced a shortterm measure. Theyre going to negotiate more. Expected to vote on that tomorrow. More on that but first lets go to cecilia vega with a closer look at the president s new tax plan. Reporter robin, good morning. Heres that tax reform plan. You can see it fits on a single piece of paper, one side, double spaced, about 200 words. The white house though says this is just a blueprint, there is more to come. 100 days fast approaching and President Trump is hoping for a major win. Its a great plan. Its going to put people back to work. Reporter that great plan, tax reform unveiled in the form of a single page, doublespaced list. We just wanted to get out and give you a broad overview of where we are. Reporter the proposal would cut tax rates for individuals and simplify the tax code, reducing the number of tax brackets from seven to just three. The plan would also eliminate estate taxes and double the standard deduction. For married couples that means the first 24,000 earned would be income taxfree. Most personal deductions would be eliminated except Home Mortgage interest and charitable contributions. With so few details, the plan is far from a done deal. We are moving as quickly as we can, so we are working with the house and senate on all the details. Reporter and still unanswered, how these changes would affect a typical family and how to pay for all these cuts without growing the deficit. Another mystery, how the plan affects the president and his business empire. So, your response to those critics who say a lot of who you presented here today could save the president or benefit in his own businesses. What this is about is creating jobs and creating economic growth, and thats what massive tax cuts and massive tax reform and simplifying the system is what were going to do. Reporter there is already pushback. Several democrats say there should be no movement on tax reform until the president releases his own tax returns so that americans can see how this impacts his own bottom line, but the treasury secretary said the president has no intention of releasing his tax returns, george. He says that the president has released plenty of information already. We are joined now by one of the architects of the president s plan, treasure secretary Steve Mnuchin. Secretary mnuchin, thank you for joining us this morning. Everyone wants to know how this plan is going to affect them. You say its all about middle class tax cuts so can you tell the middle class families watching right now, a family of four earning 60,000, how much theyll save under the president s plan. First of all, let me say its great to be here with you this morning. This is about middle income tax cuts and although were not releasing the specific numbers, this is about creating economic effects and tax cuts for the middle class. Its also about creating tax simplification so that most americans will be able to fill out their tax returns on a giant postcard. People are tired of way too much complexity, and this is also about making business taxes competitive, which will create american jobs. But dont the details matter . Why cant you say how this is going to affect the middle class family . Well, the issue is that we are working with the house and the senate, and our objective is to turn this into a bill that will pass and the president will sign. As you know, the details of taxes are very complicated and were committed to working quickly in getting this done. This is about telling the American Public what the president s principles are which are all about economic growth, jobs, jobs, jobs. Can you guarantee that no one in the middle class is going to pay more . Thats our objective, absolutely. Is it a guarantee . I cant make any guarantees until this thing is done and on the president s desk, but i can tell you thats our number one objective in this. How about the wealthy . During the campaign mr. Trump told me that he thought taxes on the wealthy should go up. Listen. Bottom line, do you want taxes on the wealthy to go up or down . They will go up a little bit and they may go up, you know but theyre going down in your plan. In my plan theyre going down but by the time its negotiated theyll go up. Does that still hold, when the negotiations are done taxes on the wealthy will go up . Again, the focus right here is lowering the top rate in return for eliminating deductions in special interests and thats what were committed to. This is about making tax simpler and getting rid of special interests. Were way too tired of people having special interests and making sure that we create investment. I was asking about the impact on taxes on the wealthy. The president said there he thought the taxes should go up after the negotiations. Right after the elections you said no absolute tax cut for the upper class, any tax cuts will be offset by fewer deductions. Are you still promising absolutely no tax cuts for the wealthy . Again, thats the objective but were working with congress, with the house and the senate, were having listening sessions, and this is about turning into a bill that will get signed. But the objective is absolute no tax cuts for the wealthy . Thats the objective. Well see where we get from here. We know that several provisions have the ability to benefit President Trump in a big way, cutting taxes on businesses from 39 to 15 , eliminating the alternative minimum tax. So this plan right now would be a tax cut for President Trump, isnt it . Let me say this isnt about President Trumps tax returns. This is about the American Publics tax returns. This is about creating economic effect for small and medium sized businesses and making sure they have the same opportunities as large corporations. But we know from the last trup tax return back in 2005 shows that he paid 38 million in taxes on 153 million in income. Without the alternative minimum tax he would have paid 7 million, less than a 5 rate. So is that an acceptable outcome on your plan, that someone pay less than a 5 rate on more than 150 million in income . Again, im not going to comment on the specifics of that. This is really about but i was asking about the principle. On the principle 5 rate on 150 million in income, is that okay under the president s plan . Again, let me just say, were going to get rid of lots and lots and lots of deductions. So making assumptions as to what the impact on any persons individual taxes, until we get out the details, i dont think makes sense. This is about getting rid of deductions. For too long the rich have had special interests in deductions and what were going to do is lower the rates to spur capital investment. And thats what this is about. Let me tell you that the ordinary worker bears about 70 of the tax burden on business, so by lowering business tax were putting money back into the American Workers pockets and we ary unleashing the economics so American Businesses can be competitive, build manufacturing plants and create jobs. But the only deduction the trump plan is about jobs. The only deduction you specified is getting rid of state and local tax deduction. I want to ask you again, the principle, should someone making more than 150 million pay less than a 5 federal tax rate . Again, the principle on this is getting rid of deductions and having fair taxes and simplifying taxes. Thats what this is about. This is not about the president s taxes. This is about whats good for the American Public. Let me assure you, what the American Public cares about is creating jobs and economic growth. For too long in this Country Economic growth has been substandard, and were going to grow it. This is about getting to sustained 3 gdp where we can unleash Economic Opportunities for American Workers and for companies. Why dont the American People have a right to know how this will affect President Trump . Again, im not sure the American Public has lots of information on the president s financials. Hes released more information, and people have lots of information, and the American Public, you saw, people voted for the president and you say hes released more information. Hes the only president in modern times since nixon who hasnt released his tax returns. Thats not more information. Thats far less. Again, this is about american jobs. The trump economic plan is about creating jobs, jobs, jobs and economic growth. And were tired of, in this country, having the highest business tax rates, taxing on worldwide income, and leaving trillions of dollars offshore. Its not a surprise that American Business has left trillion dollars offshore. This is about bringing back that money. Weve met with hundreds and hundreds of Business Executives who have had input into this. Were going to have more listening sessions. And this is about getting the most sweeping tax cuts and tax reform passed by this president to create economic growth. Mr. Secretary, thanks for your time this morning. Thank you. One thing we can safely say, lots of details to come. Still no details and no specifics right now but lets bring in your chief White House Correspondent jon karl on this. You just heard georges interview with the treasure secretary. What is your read on this new tax proposal . Robin, one page is not a tax plan. This is simply a statement of principles, as you heard in georges interview. They cannot answer basic questions about how this will affect the wealthy, about how it will affect working families. So this is the very beginning of the process. But were along the process when it comes to health care and the reform act there, and what is your read on this new push by republicans . Does it have a chance . I think it clearly does have a chance to pass in the house, robin. White house officials are very confident that it will pass the house probably next week. If that happens though, let me tell you, the battle in the senate could be even harder than it was in the house. There is no guarantee, even if they can pass this plan out of the house, that it will pass the senate. Jon, thank you. Breaking news coming in right now. We want to show you right now a tense standoff at this home in delaware this morning where a murder suspect has barricaded himself inside, has been shooting at officers. Abcs gio benitez is here with the latest. Reporter george, good morning.

Hostage negotiators are trying to establish communication with him. Shots going off in the neighborhood. There was a s. W. A. T. Team in the trees and everything. Reporter it all began at this Convenience Store. Police approaching a suspicious vehicle with two people inside. One of the men in the car getting out and firing shots at authorities, hitting that trooper. The suspect then taking off. He ran, he ran for probably like seven or eight feet and then he turned around and started shooting. Reporter the chaos leading to a desperate search. Residents warned by reverse 911. Nearby schools locked down. The trooper identified as 32yearold Corporal Stephen j. Ballard, rushed to the hospital but it was too late. The 8year veteran of the force succumbing to his injuries.

Reporter the suspect eventually discovered at his home, overnight police using an explosive charge on his door but not making entry. The suspect inside with a firearm as they work to negotiate his surrender. Right now there are no other reported injuries but its a tense and fluid situation. The other man in that car was taken into custody. We will of course keep watching this throughout the morning. To that new plane incident, this time on a delta flight. Every passenger was forced to deplane while one got up to use the bathroom while the plane was sitting on the tarmac. Rebecca jarvis is here with the details. Reporter and the hits just keep coming to our friendly skies this morning. New video aboard a delta flight and new changes at united. I need more information, sir. I havent done anything. I paid for this ticket. Reporter an entire plane forced back to the gate after a disruption aboard a Delta Airlines jet traveling from atlanta to milwaukee. Fellow passengers filmed kima hamilton, a 39yearold man being asked to leave the plane by two delta employees after he used the lavatory after the plane was taxiing. I dont understand why i have to get off this plane. I had to use the restroom. Reporter hamilton asked a Flight Attendant for permission to use the restroom while the plane sat on the tarmac for halfhour and was told no. However, Mother Nature took over, and the man says he quickly got up, used the bathroom and was back in a minute. He was then approached by an attendant and asked to get off the flight to discuss the matter further. We need to discuss this. We are pulled out of the rotation. Reporter he refused so the entire plane was pulled back to the gate and all passengers made to disembark. Delta airlines said it is im parent that passengers comply with instructions during all phases of flights, especially at the critical points of takeoff and landing. Also this morning united introducing ten new policy changes in the wake of their own video of a passenger being pulled off a plane, including passengers are now going to be given up to 10,000 for voluntarily giving up their seats on overbooked flights. Now i think that passengers are getting a few more rights but the question is how many people are going to be waiting for that 10,000. Buy some tickets. Thats a lot of flying, 10,000. Exactly. Thank you, rebecca. Amy joins us at the desk with the mornings other top stories, starting with a major explosion in the middle east. Thats right. New video this morning shows the explosion near the airport in syrias capital, damascus. Several missiles taking out a military installation, possibly taking out weapons being transferred to hezbollah. No injuries were reported. The sniper who ambushed two state troopers back in 2014 killing one of them has been sentenced to death. A jury rejected pleas from eric freins attorneys. He led authorities on a 48day manhunt before his arrest. A man is under arrest accused of setting two fires at a hotel in las vegas. The suspect now faces arson and other charges. And a man who spent 47 days stranded on a mountain in nepal is in remarkably good health. Crews mess could youed the man from a rocky ledge after he and his girlfriend got lost in a snowstorm. She died just three days before the rescue but he survived on just water and salt. Finally, you can call it a key mistake. A man in california locked his keys in his car so he called triple a. But when the guy from triple a arrived, guess what he did. He locked his keys in his car, so he then had to call triple a as well. Probably hoping to keep this whole story low key but its unlikely that his coworkers are going to forget it now that its on good morning america. Low key . All right, thank you very much.
