NEW: I’ve distilled dozens of interviews with members, aides and lobbyists to create a scooplet-filled guide to Republicans’ House Financial Services gavel race.
Here are 5 obvious — and not-so-obvious — things to pay attention to in the coming months: subscriber.politicopro.com/article/2024/0…
Newsy: GOP Sen. Steve Daines (NRSC chair + Senate Finance member) tells me he wants to pass the House tax bill:
“It’s very important for global competitiveness and provisions [are] in there for jobs and economic growth”
“I hope we get it done”
Romney tells me and Joseph Zeballos-Roig that he’s a “no” on the tax package:
“I’m not inclined to add an unfunded entitlement on the childcare or child support.”
Says even though it’s a 3-year policy, the CTC expansion is going to “last forever.”
Scoop: Rep. Andy Barr tells me he's decided to enter the race to replace McHenry at the helm of House Financial Services.
His pitch: 'End the battle' between America First and free market capitalism. So far? “Everyone thinks we need it.”
