14/ And thanks to our general counsel, Jeremy Kutner, who handled the FOIA lawsuit against Treasury to get records that speak to how this major law was shaped. You can read some of those here: https://www.documentcloud.org/projects/treasury-tcja-records-obtained-via-foia-204249/ …

10/ And, thanks to the IRS records, we know the vast sums at stake. In 2018, company CEO Brendan Bechtel and his two siblings netted deductions of $111 million from the pass-through provision. Brendan alone got a deduction of more than $64 million.pic.twitter.com/7oiSzExJWY

8/ In the final rush to finish the Trump tax bill, someone inserted eight words that had not been in either the House or Senate versions. The language extended the new deduction to engineering firms, guaranteeing the Bechtels a massive tax cut.pic.twitter.com/elQ5Mn6CSD

7/ Companies like the engineering giant
@Bechtel spent heavily on lobbying to shape Trump’s tax bill to its benefit. Records we obtained through a FOIA lawsuit show the company meeting with Justin Muzinich, Treasury’s point man for the bill.pic.twitter.com/GU1CZKxjF3

6/ It’s long been understood that the deduction was the result of a flurry of midnight deals and last-minute language changes. But the IRS records allow us to see the dark side of the moon: precisely how much money specific billionaires reaped from the final text of the law.
