Rubio Threatens to Vote Against Tax Bill

https://politicalwire.com/2017/12/14/rubio-threatens-vote-tax-bill/

"SNIP.........

Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) informed Senate leaders he intends to vote against the Republicans’ $1.5 trillion tax plan unless it includes a larger expansion of a child tax credit, according to a Senate GOP source.

...........SNIP"

Political theater so Rubio can say he fought for the child tax credit expansion when he runs for president in 2020 and is accused of being for the tax cuts. IMHO

He would have to be present to vote.

Last time I heard Rubio had the worst attendance record in the entire Senate.
