The Trump tax cut is bringing 12,500 Citizens Bank employees an extra $1,000, the company announced.
The one-time bonus will go to employees "below a certain compensation threshold," covering about 70 percent of the company's employees, Citizens Financial Group Inc. said in a written statement.
Orrin Hatch's announcement that he plans to retire from the United States Senate after seven terms brings to mind Hatch's appearance at Ted Kennedy's wake in August 2009. (Back when Hatch was in only his sixth term.)
Hatch, a Republican from Utah, told a story of a time when his former administrative assistant asked him for a favor. (It's here, starting at 1:48:08.) The man wanted to have an event for 200 Mormon youth missionaries in Boston, and he had difficult requests. He wanted Hatch and Kennedy to speak at the meeting, and he wanted it at Faneuil Hall.
