Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) said Monday she hopes "very much to be able to support a tax reform package," but laid out some specific things she wants to see in the legislation. "I do not believe that the top rate should be lowered for individuals who are making more than $1 million a year," Collins told Bloomberg News. "I don't think there's any need to eliminate the estate tax." House Republicans are unveiling their tax bill on Wednesday, and the Senate bill, expected a week later, will be more tailored to win over moderates like Collins and maybe a few Democrats.
