Overview
The Financial Times quoted Micah Green in an article titled “Trump Breaks with Congress Over Tax and Healthcare.” The article, published January 17, discusses how Donald Trump is creating growing friction with Republicans in Congress by staking out positions that threaten key tenets of their policy plans, setting the stage for clashes over the president-elect’s attempts to reform healthcare and taxation.
Mr. Green, who co-chairs the firm’s Government Affairs and Public Policy Group, says it was too early to judge the state of relations between Mr. Trump and congressional Republicans. “Until there’s a Department of Treasury in the game on tax, until there’s a Health and Human Services department involved on healthcare, until the White House staff is fully engaged and involved, I think it’s premature to make any broad conclusion about these statements.”
