House Republicans’ determination to slash tax deductions for taxpayers and homebuyers in blue states has commanded most of the public’s attention since the unveiling of the GOP’s tax bill Thursday. The Republicans are crowing that their measure will drastically remake the tax code to spur economic growth while giving virtually all American families a tax cut.
