Republican holdouts lined up to support the sweeping tax overhaul in the Senate.

Winning over holdouts like Sen. Jeff Flake, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell told reporters that Republicans had the votes to pass their tax bill, which could affect the U.S. for at least a decade. But as the clock ticked down, the final bill hadn't appeared, and Democrats railed against the idea of passing something without the final language in hand. Lisa Desjardins talks to Judy Woodruff.
