Rep. Kevin Brady: This is a family-friendly tax code

House Republicans on Thursday unveiled a sweeping overhaul of the nation's tax code, slashing the corporate tax rate, eliminating scores of smaller deductions, and collapsing the number of individual tax brackets.

But details of exactly how the tax overhaul will be paid for are buried in the fine print of the bill, and are likely to be the source of intense debate over the coming weeks.
