“We’re going to take the time we need to get it right,” Lamar Alexander (R-TN), who heads the Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, said this week when asked whether the White House was pressuring him and others to move swiftly. 

    “But I want to assure donors,” Alexander added, “that their tax cuts are not in jeopardy and part of taking time to get it right will include making sure those cuts are retroactive to the hour and minute the House of Representatives passed the bill.”
