The Senate Finance Committee released its portion of the GOP’s megabill this week, softening House lawmakers’ cuts to the nation’s clean energy tax credits. The proposal likely will spark weeks of debate within the party and could jeopardize the Senate’s self-imposed deadline for passing the bill. POLITICO’s Josh Siegel and Kelsey Tamborrino break down what the Senate proposed, how it compares to the House’s version and what’s next in the megabill battle. Plus, President Donald Trump nominated Katherine Scarlett to lead the White House Council on Environmental Quality.
