Congress just passed the biggest change in the tax code in 30 years. And 80% of Americans will get a tax cut because of it. Republicans are celebrating their biggest legislative achievement of 2017.
President Trump and Republican congressional leaders took a victory lap on Wednesday after their tax reform bill cleared its final hurdle in Congress earlier in the day.
“We broke every record … It’s the largest tax cut in the history of our country,” Trump said during a speech on the South Lawn of the White House, flanked by Republican lawmakers from both chambers.
“This is going to mean companies are going to be coming back,” Trump said. “You know, I campaigned on the fact that, you know, we’re not going to lose our companies anymore.”
