GOP eyes working-class future

Instead of corporate tax cuts, job “stability” will be a campaign theme for House Republicans as they try to win the majority in next year’s midterms.

What’s happening: Numerous corporations are cutting off money to a big chunk of Republicans who refused to certify the Joe Biden victory.
