President Donald Trump campaigned on a promise to cut taxes for Americans. What he didn’t say was it would be only for wealthy Americans. A roundup of editorials Tuesday looks at the Senate tax bill and the upcoming vote.

Opinions from the Left:

1. Changes coming to Senate tax bill as wildcards linger

From US News and World Report: Without some sort of overhaul, the bill is likely to go down in flames.

2. Tax cut's true costs

From The San Francisco Chronicle: The bill hurts those making less than $75,000, plain and simple.

3.  President Trump should fulfill his promises on tax reform

From Newsday: On Tuesday, Trump will lobby for something he promised he wouldn’t — a tax plan that hurts those who are not wealthy.
