"content": "\u003cp>WASHINGTON -- Billionaire environmental activist Tom Steyer announced Monday he will spend $30 million to get young voters to the polls to help Democrats in this year's midterm elections.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Steyer is a former hedge fund manager who has invested some of his wealth in an array of political causes, most notably fighting climate change. Forbes estimates his wealth at $1.6 billion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Steyer has advocated for President Trump's impeachment. He said he knows that the effort is making \"some of our friends and allies in this city uncomfortable.\" But Steyer said that effort will continue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said his organization will deliver the book \"Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House\" to all members of Congress this week. The book portrays the 45th president as a leader who doesn't understand the weight of his office and whose competence is questioned by aides.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"CdU9KWVLdhFyj0QPTPeG5hdKFQTVnxae\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Steyer said he will also focus his financial clout on helping Democrats running for the House and Senate. He said Republicans won't cross a president who controls their base regardless of what he says or does.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We now know that this partisan fight has becomes a fierce battle for the soul of America,\" Steyer said. \"And we, the people, have to win this battle, and we don't just have to win, we have to run the table.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Steyer considered running for office, but says that's not where he can make the biggest difference. He is the founder of NextGen America, a liberal advocacy group. He is the main source of cash for a super PAC called the NextGen Climate Action Committee, which spent more than $90 million in the last election cycle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Steyer said NextGen America helped register more than 20,000 voters in last year's Virginia elections. He credited the effort for helping Ralph Northam win election as governor, and he said the effort will expand to 10 states this year, including California, Arizona, Michigan and Nevada. The organization is looking to register more than 250,000 voters this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Steyer has also spent $20 million on a campaign to impeach Trump. He was coy about how much more he would spend on that front. He said it would depend upon political events, but was confident of a greater investment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi of California has called impeachment efforts a distraction and warned they could backfire against Democrats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Michael Ahrens, a spokesman for the Republican National Committee, said, \"Tom Steyer can light as much of his money on fire as he wants, but doesn't change that Democrats like Nancy Pelosi view him as a distraction. If Democrats' message for 2018 is a baseless impeachment threat that the majority of voters disagree with, they're going to lose.\"\u003c/p>\n\n",

He said he knows that the effort is making \"some of our friends and allies in this city uncomfortable.\" But Steyer said that effort will continue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said his organization will deliver the book \"Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House\" to all members of Congress this week.

The organization is looking to register more than 250,000 voters this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Steyer has also spent $20 million on a campaign to impeach Trump.

Steyer also teased a “big announcement” that he will be making at a press event Monday.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>H-1B Visa Reform\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Many high-tech firms in the Bay Area rely on the H-1B visa program to hire foreign workers. Republican congressman Darrell Issa and co-author Democrat Rep. Zoe Lofgren have a bipartisan bill aimed at closing what they call loopholes in the current program. Critics, including many in the Trump administration, say the program is being exploited to take jobs away from American workers.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5\">Guests:\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">U.S. Rep.

The state already has issued more than 400 licenses to businesses that are hoping for big profits in the multibillion-dollar industry, but several cities are still scrambling to put regulatory systems in place at the local level. Meanwhile, this week the Trump administration took aim at recreational cannabis, allowing federal prosecutors to more aggressively enforce laws against marijuana, which remains illegal at the federal level. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Guests:\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">David Downs, San Francisco Chronicle reporter\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Terryn Buxton, Oakland Extracts owner\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Henry Wykowski, Wykowski & Associates attorney\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Some in law enforcement support a tougher approach, but a bipartisan group of senators in March urged Sessions to uphold existing marijuana policy. Others in Congress have been seeking ways to protect and promote legal pot businesses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Marijuana advocates quickly condemned Sessions' move as a return to outdated drug war policies that unduly affected minorities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sessions \"wants to maintain a system that has led to tremendous injustice ... and that has wasted federal resources on a huge scale,\" said Maria McFarland Sanchez-Moreno, executive director of the Drug Policy Alliance. \"If Sessions thinks that makes sense in terms of prosecutorial priorities, he is in a very bizarre ideological state, or a deeply problematic one.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A task force Sessions convened to study pot policy made no recommendations for upending the legal industry but instead encouraged Justice Department officials to keep reviewing the Obama administration's more hands-off approach to marijuana enforcement, something Sessions promised to do since he took office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The change also reflects yet another way in which Sessions, who served as a federal prosecutor at the height of the drug war in Mobile, Alabama, has reversed Obama-era criminal justice policies that aimed to ease overcrowding in federal prisons and contributed to a rethinking of how drug criminals were prosecuted and sentenced.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While his Democratic predecessor Eric Holder told federal prosecutors to avoid seeking long mandatory minimum sentences when charging certain lower-level drug offenders, for example, Sessions issued an order demanding the opposite, telling them to pursue the most serious charges possible against most suspects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

He thinks most Americans disagree with the White House about that. Still, Selee thinks the administration is \"driving the conversation in new ways we hadn't seen under Republicans or Democrats before.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In its first year, the Trump administration delivered a broad crackdown on illegal immigration, and new limits on legal migration. Arrests by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement are up more than 40 percent since January, while fewer immigrants are trying to cross illegally at the southern border. Refugee resettlement is at its lowest level since Congress created the current framework in 1980. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's a 180 degree turn from the policies of the Obama administration,\" says Jessica Vaughan, director of policy studies at the Center for Immigration Studies, which favors lower levels of immigration. \"It's sending a message that the U.S. is taking its immigration laws seriously.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some of the administration's most ambitious goals, however, have been blocked by the courts, or stymied by Congress. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here's a look at five major immigration stories to watch in 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>1. DACA\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Trump administration is moving to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, better known as DACA, leaving thousands of so-called DREAMers in limbo. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Obama-era program protects about 700,000 young people who were brought illegally to the U.S. as children, shielding them from deportation and allowing them to work legally. Those protections have already begun to expire for some, with thousands of DREAMers potentially at risk of deportation starting in March. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Polls show widespread support for allowing DREAMers to stay in the country, but a permanent fix has been elusive as Congress and the White House try to hammer out the details. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>2. Travel ban\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The administration scored a long-sought victory when the Supreme Court allowed the latest version of the president's travel ban to take effect pending the outcome of several legal challenges. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lower courts had blocked much of this travel ban, as well as earlier versions, partly because of concerns that they discriminate against Muslims. The latest travel ban covers many (though not all) travelers from six majority-Muslim countries, plus North Koreans and government officials from Venezuela.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One appeals court has already found that the president exceeded his legal authority; a second appeals court will rule soon. An appeal to the Supreme Court is all but certain to follow. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>3. Border wall \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This was arguably Trump's signature issue on the campaign trail, and a reliable applause line at his big public rallies this year. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But progress has been slow. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The administration has commissioned prototypes near the southern border outside San Diego. But Congress has yet to appropriate any money for construction. On the campaign trail, Trump promised to make Mexico pay for the wall, but officials there have said several times they will not do so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Critics have questioned the need for the wall in the first place, especially since the number of immigrants trying to cross the border illegally has fallen to the lowest level in decades. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>4. Sanctuary cities\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>President Trump signed an executive order intended to punish so-called \"sanctuary cities\" that limit their cooperation with immigration authorities. Several of those cities pushed back, arguing that the administration can't withhold federal money to coerce them into changing their immigration policies. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So far, courts have ruled against the Trump administration. A federal judge in California issued an injunction partially blocking the executive order in a case brought by San Francisco and Santa Clara County. Judges in Chicago and Philadelphia also ruled against the administration. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is a battle that's likely headed to appeals courts in the new year. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>5. Employer crackdown\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So far, the administration's enforcement efforts have focused mostly on immigrants themselves, not on employers who hire undocumented workers. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump administration officials say that will change next year. But past administrations found that workplace raids carried a high political price. The new year may reveal whether the White House has the stomach for a fight with the pro-business wing of the Republican Party. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2017 NPR.

On the campaign trail, Trump promised to make Mexico pay for the wall, but officials there have said several times they will not do so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Critics have questioned the need for the wall in the first place, especially since the number of immigrants trying to cross the border illegally has fallen to the lowest level in decades. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>4. Sanctuary cities\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>President Trump signed an executive order intended to punish so-called \"sanctuary cities\" that limit their cooperation with immigration authorities. Several of those cities pushed back, arguing that the administration can't withhold federal money to coerce them into changing their immigration policies. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So far, courts have ruled against the Trump administration. A federal judge in California issued an injunction partially blocking the executive order in a case brought by San Francisco and Santa Clara County. Judges in Chicago and Philadelphia also ruled against the administration. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is a battle that's likely headed to appeals courts in the new year. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>5. Employer crackdown\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So far, the administration's enforcement efforts have focused mostly on immigrants themselves, not on employers who hire undocumented workers. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump administration officials say that will change next year. But past administrations found that workplace raids carried a high political price. The new year may reveal whether the White House has the stomach for a fight with the pro-business wing of the Republican Party. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2017 NPR.

The bill cuts individual rates for eight years and slashes the top corporate tax rate to 21 percent permanently.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bill now goes to Trump for his signature, though it’s not clear when he will sign it.

The Senate passed the bill with some slight tweaks in the early hours of Wednesday morning on a party-line vote, 51-48.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a historic night,” Senate Finance Committee Chairman Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, said after the vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bill has been in the works for months. Republican leaders put a marker down at the beginning of the year to pass a tax bill by the end of the summer, though that had depended on passing a repeal and replacement of the Affordable Care Act in the spring, an effort that dragged out but ultimately did not materialize. The tax bill accomplishes part of that goal by eliminating the penalty for individuals who don’t get health insurance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”v9DQefAMRsG5xkhtP23jK9ClTMhwzlNC”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans say that public opinion of the bill, which has been very low, will turn around as people start to feel the effect of tax cuts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When people see their withholding improving, when they see the jobs occurring, when they see bigger paychecks, a fairer tax system, a simpler tax code, that’s what’s going to produce the results,” House Speaker Paul Ryan said Tuesday. “Results are going to make this popular.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/943489378462130176\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>People\u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2017/12/19/571754894/charts-see-how-much-of-gop-tax-cuts-will-go-to-the-middle-class\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> across income levels will see a tax cut of some sort\u003c/a> under the bill, though most of the benefits will go to top earners. By February, federal income tax withholding is expected to be adjusted in paychecks, but for most people the changes may not be apparent until April 2019, when 2018 taxes will be due for annual filers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The GOP has long sought a big overhaul of the tax code to simplify it by eliminating complex tax breaks and lowering rates, but in the end, the tax bill did not do much to actually simplify the code.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/ZHs4WiaKDFc\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Individual tax rates are cut for eight years, though a future Congress could choose to extend them instead of allowing an effective tax increase to take place at the end of 2025. “We have no intention of allowing that to happen,” Ryan, R-Wis., said to \u003cem>CBS This Morning \u003c/em>on Wednesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The projection that the bill would add $1.5 trillion to the deficit over 10 years grows to $2 trillion if those individual tax cuts are made permanent, according to the nonpartisan Tax Policy Center.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., referred in a floor speech to “the ludicrous Republican insistence — their claim — that these giveaways to the wealthiest will pay for themselves.” GOP leaders have insisted that reducing taxes on the corporate side of the ledger will result in higher wages and more money being brought back to the U.S. from overseas business operations, but \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2017/11/23/566034204/poll-economists-unanimous-that-debt-would-balloon-under-gop-tax-plan\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">many economists doubt \u003c/a>that the bill will spur significant economic growth or avoid adding to the national debt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”6zgTXlR1RhCSpzooWcxvt8OjC3SH9kxF”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republican leaders have spoken of reducing entitlement spending as a priority for next year. “We need to keep focused on the spending side of the ledger as well,” Ryan told ABC’s \u003cem>Good Morning America\u003c/em>, when he mentioned revisiting health care spending and welfare reform, which President Trump has also focused on.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats have been unable to break GOP unity to stop the tax bill as they were able to over health care, though they have said they look forward to how it will play in the 2018 midterm elections as they argue it’s a boon for the wealthy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer predicted that Republicans will “rue the day” they voted for the tax bill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/SenSchumer/status/943359148447715333\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That day was \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2017/12/19/571982251/republicans-set-to-pass-tax-overhaul-as-early-as-tuesday-night\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">delayed because of Senate rules\u003c/a>, which prevent the bill from including any measures considered “extraneous” to budget matters. After the House passed what was believed to be the final version of the bill on Tuesday, Democratic senators challenged provisions relating to education and a technical issue over the naming of the bill. The Senate parliamentarian ruled that they did not fit inside the budget rules that the bill is being passed under, which allow it to be approved by a simple 51-vote majority, bypassing any risk of a Democratic filibuster.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2017 NPR.

Republican leaders put a marker down at the beginning of the year to pass a tax bill by the end of the summer, though that had depended on passing a repeal and replacement of the Affordable Care Act in the spring, an effort that dragged out but ultimately did not materialize.
