I would like to congratulate @SenateMajLdr on having done a fantastic job both strategically & politically on the passing in the Senate of the MASSIVE TAX CUT & Reform Bill. I could have not asked for a better or more talented partner. Our team will go onto many more VICTORIES!

After the House voted and passed a revised Senate version of the legislation, lawmakers who voted in favor congregated outside of the Capitol to board buses down to Pennsylvania Avenue.
The bill will be signed by President Trump in the coming days and will go into effect in February.
"We had a historic victory for the American people. It will go through final passage today in the House. Then the congressmen and women and the Senate will be coming over -- the Republican Senate," Trump said at the White House earlier today. "We're going to have the Republican senators come over, we're going to have the Republican members of the House come over. And we're going to have a news conference. And people are starting to see how great this historic victory was."
