My updated list of estimates of the cost of the GOP megabill including its effects on growth including today's CBO estimate.
Contrary to claims the law will produce such stupendous economic growth it will pay for itself, all independent estimates find it will cost trillions.

NEW: In its new legal brief, the RNC urged SCOTUS to rule that mail-in ballots arriving post-Election Day should not be counted.
It also framed the counting of such ballots, which has been practiced for decades, as a dangerous modern experiment that undermines public trust and invites wrongdoing.
