There is a compromise here; it is the Hatch-McConnell bill. Our economy needs relief, businesses and families need certainty, and all we are proposing is extending current tax law for 1 more year so we can dedicate that year to do tax reform. By contrast, the Democratic bill offers nothing but more uncertainty and tax increases on job creators. Let's face it, we are talking about 940,000 small businesses that will be drastically affected by this. Many of those provide jobs in our society and will continue to do so if we do not clobber them with the Democratic approach.
