Tax lobbyists worry border bill could derail reform efforts
Tax lobbyists are worried Congress could endanger highly anticipated tax reform if it uses the first reconciliation bill to shore up immigration and border security funding.
Tax cuts enacted in 2017 by President-elect Trump’s signature bill are set to expire at the end of next year.
