US Treasurys are slipping on Wednesday ahead of the House's second vote on the GOP tax bill. Bonds markets across Europe and Asia are also selling-off, sending yields higher.

The House passed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act on Tuesday, but needs to vote again Wednesday after three pieces of the bill were deemed in violation of the so-called Byrd rule. It would be an identical version of the bill the Senate passed just after midnight on Wednesday.

The benchmark 10-year yield rose to its highest level in nine months, and has climbed by about 14 basis points since December 15. 

Here are the headlines on the tax bill:
