Priebus on Tax Reform: ‘We Feel Like It Is Something that the White House Should Drive’

‘And we have driven the process’

RUSH EXCERPT:
BAIER: "All right, tax reform. The rollout today, first of all, was this rollout done because you learned something from health care that you need to be on the front end of this?”
PRIEBUS: “No, not necessarily. I think that, you know, in regard to health care, it is something that the Republicans have been talking about for six years, and Tom Price is one of the architects who happened to be our secretary of HHS, and so obviously, we had a plan that we’ve been working on for a long time. In regard to tax reform, we feel like it is something that the White House should drive and we have driven the process. We’ve been meeting, Bret, for all the listeners, we’ve been talking about this since before November, but right after November, we were meeting in the halls of Congress with our team."
