Here's what to know about the proposal. ⤵️

The plan, which would raise "hundreds of billions of dollars," according to Senate Finance chairman Ron Wyden, is being used to help pay for Democrats' major social spending and climate package. axios.com/senate-democra…
It would fundamentally change the U.S. tax system and would require billionaires to give the IRS a detailed account of how much the assets they own gained or lost each year. axios.com/senate-democra…

Trump is the heart, soul and undisputed leader of the Republican Party and will easily win the nomination if he wants it, the polls make unmistakably clear. trib.al/8eLtuMg
It's not just idle chatter. Trump is spending much of his time thinking about politics, holding calls with his political team and surveying polling.

While Ron DeSantis and Mike Pompeo are seen as potential challengers, Trump's most likely opponent is Mike Pence, who — we're told — has no plans to defer to his former boss. axios.com/trump-2024-run…

@StefWKight @SenatorMenendez @welcomeus @cecmunoz @NazaninSAsh .@SenatorMenendez: "I truly believe that reconciliation is the only pathway...toward some type of status for undocumented immigrants in the country...without reconciliation and without Republican support in a evenly divided Senate, I don't see how that pathway would be possible."

@StefWKight @SenatorMenendez @welcomeus @cecmunoz @NazaninSAsh .@SenatorMenendez: "I have taken a very clear position that a refugee is a refugee and you need to give them the opportunity to make their case under our asylum laws. It should not differentiate between an Afghan or a Haitian." Image
