Well, remember why we have to do this. The tax cuts from 2017 are expiring and it will be a $4 trillion tax increase on the American people and small businesses. For a family of four, that means if you made $80,000 a year, you'd see your taxes go up by $1700 a year. We can't let that happen. So this is a pro growth, pro family policy. It does have savings in it. We are really trying to get at this by helping Medicaid, preserve Medicaid for the people that need it. (02:00–02:08)
