DealBook Briefing: Peltz Gets His Seat on Procter & Gamble’s Board
Senator Marco Rubio of Florida said Friday he would vote yes after winning a more generous child tax credit in the final bill
and Senator Bob Corker of Tennessee, who voted against the initial Senate bill over deficit concerns, said he would support the legislation despite the cost of the tax cuts.
Alphabet, $141 billion
Verizon, $109 billion
21st Century Fox, $91 billion
Time Warner, $87 billion
Walt Disney, $71 billion
Apple, $885 billion2.
The change intended to shore up Mr. Rubio’s support would allow 70 percent of the $2,000 per-child tax credit to be refundable,
up from 55 percent in the original draft of the bill, according to lawmakers and those briefed on the change.
The media tycoon has received accolades from all corners for yesterday’s deal to sell the bulk
of his 21st Century Fox to The Walt Disney Company — including from President Trump himself.
