The House passed their #TaxScam bill. Now it's all about the Senate. Here's the thing: By my count, we have 10 GOP Senators that could cause real problems for McConnell. We have to inundate them with calls/emails. Here they are:
Ron Johnson R-WI
He's said he'll vote no because he doesn't like the way the bill treats small businesses. Wisconsin - stay on him. Don't let him change his mind.

Senator Collins R-ME
She's one of the three that voted down Trumpcare & isn't happy with the ACA mandate repeal. Also, she's the author of the tax credit for teachers which got slashed in the House bill. Maine - stay on her!!

Senator Murkowski R-AK
She said she wants a healthcare stabilization bill passed BEFORE the tax bill, which takes out the ACA mandate. Alaska - call her; make her be true to her word!!

Senator McCain R-AZ
As usual, he is a wild card. He did just give notice that he wants a LOT of time on the Senate floor to offer amendments. Arizona -- push him to demand regular order!

Senator Corker R-TN
He's one of the GOP deficit hawks. The tax bill will raise the deficit by $1.5 Trillion. He's also said he is very uneasy with the 35 temporary tax provisions that are "holding" the deficit at $1.5T. Tennessee - keep up the calls!!

Senator Flake R-AZ
Like Corker, he's a deficit hawk. However, he's been really flaky. If he has other Senators who will vote no, he'll have the "courage" to do the same. Arizona - Keep up those calls! Tell him how bad this plan is for you!

Senator Young R-IN
He doesn't want the tax plan to "blow a hole in the budget" which it most certainly does. He does think growth can help, but he appears to think current estimates are way too rosy. Indianan - keep up the calls! We want him feeling uneasy!

Senator Lankford R-OK
Another deficit hawk. He's been making noises on Capitol Hill, but more quietly, that he's unhappy. Oklahoma - your state's getting bluer...keep up those calls! Make him listen!

Senator Moran R-KS
Not only is he a deficit hawk, he just watched his state implode its economy due to massive tax cuts. Growth did NOT happen and the rich just found new shelters for their $$. Kansas - keep up the calls; learn the lesson of Brownback's cuts!

Senator Rand Paul R-KY
Rand Paul is always a wild card. He has been more than willing to vote against the tide. He loves tax cuts BUT he has been vocal that all taxpayers - incl. poor and middle class - should get them. Kentucky - keep up the calls!
