Cheddar's J.D. Durkin reports live from Capitol Hill about the big news surrounding the GOP Tax Reform Bill. After rectifying a procedural snafu in the House vote, President Trump will get one step closer to his first big legislative victory this afternoon. The White House is planning a "major tax event" for later this afternoon. The administration stresses that this will not ber a formal signing of the bill. J.D. also reports on the news out of Alabama. Eight days after the special election there, Judge Roy Moore has yet to concede, even though there is a 21,000-vote difference between himself and his challenger, Democrat Doug Jones. Jones is in the lead. Moore and supporters are mounting a $75,000 fundraising effort to launch an investigation into any possible voter fraud.

Elon Musk called the whole bill a "disgusting abomination.”
