THE DAILY QUOTE
“‘We don’t know the brackets,’ Representative Chris Collins of New York, a Trump ally, told reporters after a Republican conference… ‘We don’t know where we are on estate taxes. We don’t know where we are on’ the state and local tax deduction -- a contentious issue for members like Collins from high-tax states. ‘We don’t know where we are on the size of the child tax credit,’ he continued. ‘We don’t know, we don’t know, we don’t know, we don’t know, we don’t know.’” - Bloomberg, 10/25/2017
