Sens. Bob Corker and Ron Johnson will vote “yes” for the Republican tax bill in the budget committee Tuesday afternoon, reports said. Corker, a Tennessee Republican, and Johnson, a Wisconsin Republican, have been among those in the GOP wavering on the tax bill. Johnson has sought increased benefits for so-called pass-through businesses in the bill, and Corker wants a trigger to bring in revenue if tax cuts don’t pay for themselves. Even if it passes the committee, the bill would need to go before the full Senate for a vote.
