As the Republican-controlled U.S. Senate mulls changes to President Donald Trump's 'One Big Beautiful Bill Act,' one House Republican is warning his Senate counterparts against tweaking one particular section. During a Sunday interview with CNN congressional correspondent Manu Raju, Rep. Mike Lawler (R-N.Y.) cautioned Senate Republicans against making any changes to the state and local tax (SALT) deduction he and others negotiated with House Republican leadership. The SALT deduction cap is currently at $10,000, but House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) agreed to raise the cap to $40,000 in order to convince House's SALT caucus to support the legislation.

"Rob Kall has certainly acquired the firsthand experiences and knowledge gained through interviews to deliver some interesting insights about the "bottom-up" information revolution. Whereas the old 'top-down' systems created stove-pipes and excessive secrecy that blocked information sharing and led to the 'failure to connect the dots' before 9-11, the bottom-up approach should be the main fix. Kall's concept would seem to interface equally well with the founding fathers' idealism in setting forth their democratic theory of governance as with the realism that makes the multi-sourced, bottom-up Wikipedia work. As someone who shares my support of both government and corporate whistleblowing -- which is nothing more than encouraging greater horizontal sharing of information, I commend Rob Kall's important work on this topic."
