McCain, Murkowski Announce Support of Tax Reform Bill

McCain also announced he will support a Republican measure, just to prove that it can actually happen.

“After careful thought and consideration, I have decided to support the Senate tax reform bill. I believe this legislation, though far from perfect, would enhance American competitiveness, boost the economy, and provide long overdue tax relief for middle class families," McCain said in a statement.

The DJIA spiked 332 points to close over 24,000 for the first time in history.
