Senate Republicans are considering a trigger that would automatically increase taxes if their sweeping legislation fails to generate as much revenue as they expect. The effort comes as a second Republican senator, Steve Daines of Montana, announced Monday that he opposes the tax bill in its current form. Previously, Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., said he opposed the bill, leaving Senate Republicans no room for error as they aim to vote on the bill this week. Both senators complained that the tax bill favors large corporations over small businesses. Utah Sen. Orrin Hatch said Senate Republicans “intend to get to 50” votes in the chamber.
