Key blue state Republican says Senate's local tax write-off offer is a 'good deal'
Rep. Mike Lawler, R-N.Y., expressed satisfaction with a tax provision in the Senate's version of Trump's bill, particularly regarding the state and local tax (SALT) deduction caps. The House's proposal raised the cap to $40,000 for 10 years, while the Senate reduced it to five years but maintained the higher deduction amount.

Despite some dissent among Republicans, particularly from those in less affluent states, Lawler emphasized the importance of this compromise for taxpayers in high-cost areas. The Senate is set to begin considering the bill soon, with ongoing discussions about its various provisions.

JOHN YOO: Trump scores historic win as Supreme Court reins in lower courts' overreach
The Supreme Court's ruling in Trump v. Casa limits the ability of federal trial judges to issue nationwide injunctions, which have been used to block various presidential initiatives. The 6-3 majority opinion, authored by Justice Amy Coney Barrett, emphasizes the constitutional balance of power among the branches of government.

This decision allows Trump to enforce policies in states where lower courts have not intervened, marking a significant victory for the Trump administration. The ruling challenges the unprecedented use of nationwide injunctions, which have surged in recent years, and reinforces the notion that each branch of government has an independent duty to interpret the Constitution.
