Odaily Planet Daily News: US President Trump pressed his Republican colleagues in Congress on Tuesday to unite and support a comprehensive tax cut bill, but apparently he failed to convince a few stubborn Republicans who may still block the package that covers most of Trump's domestic agenda. At a closed door meeting on Capitol Hill, Trump bluntly warned Republican members of the House not to attempt further changes to this massive bill. He strongly warned against making it more difficult for people to obtain Medicaid subsidies. According to an anonymous person present, Trump told Republicans, 'Don't mess around on Medicaid.'. ”Trump also advised Republicans not to seek further reductions in state and local taxes. But this issue is particularly important for moderate Republicans in high tax states such as California and New York. (Golden Ten)
