    A Christmas Miracle?

    President Trump has said he wants to sign the bill by Christmas. While we believe that we are likely to see some kind of bill passed in the first half of 2018, and possibly even in the first quarter, we view passage by Christmas unlikely.

    We’ll get a quick read on whether Christmas remains a possibility next week. In order to stay on track, the bill would need to make it out of the House Ways and Means Committee during the week of November 6, debate would need to be completed during the week of November 13, and the House would need to pass its version of the bill by Thanksgiving.
