The Associated Press reports:

“From New Mexico to New York, high-profile liberals are calling for the repeal of the Republican tax plan that President Donald Trump signed into law just two months ago. They're betting big that the message will resonate with voters in the midterm elections in November and provide the sort of clear, populist economic message some Democrats worry has been missing. But others, including red-state Democrats, are clearly queasy about the strategy, mindful that repealing a government benefit once it takes hold is far easier said than done — and not always popular.”

That divide won’t keep Democrats from campaigning against the tax law overall, but it does represent a messaging challenge at a time when some polls suggest the overhaul has found growing support.
