WASHINGTON, D.C.— House Majority Whip Steve Scalise (R-La.) made the following statement regarding President Trump signing the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act into law today:
“Today marks a new chapter for job creation and economic growth in America. With President Trump signing our Tax Cuts and Jobs Act into law, we finally turn the page on a decade of economic stagnation and begin a new era of economic growth and restoration for hardworking families so we can rebuild our middle class. Just in time for Christmas, American families will see more money in their wallets and higher paychecks in 2018. Workers are already seeing the benefits of this historic tax cuts bill with businesses across the country from AT&T to Boeing, Comcast, Wells Fargo and others that are now giving bonuses, pay raises, and new investments that will get our economy back on track. I’m proud my Republican colleagues in Congress along with President Trump delivered on our promises to the American people to work to grow our economy, and I look forward to continuing delivering even more conservative victories for hardworking families as we head into the new year.”
