Republican Sen. Marco Rubio will vote for his party's $1.5 trillion tax bill, his spokeswoman said Friday afternoon.That gives a major boost to the prospects that GOP leaders will be able to push their prized measure through Congress next week.The Florida lawmaker had said he'd oppose the legislation unless his colleagues made the per child tax credit more generous for low-income families.On Friday, Republicans said the final legislation would do just that. Lawmakers said the bill would now let low-earners using the credit get up to $1,400 in IRS refunds if they owe little or no taxes. That's up from $1,100 in the earlier version.https://www.newsmax.com/politics/rubio-yes-tax-reform/2017/12/15/id/832072/
