    Passage of tax reform is welcome news for American workers, job seekers, and job creators. Tax reform that makes America more competitive will bolster continued job creation and will help increase wages for American workers.

    Everyone is winning with the tax cuts. @POTUS
    Since the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act: 3.8% unemployment rate, lowest in 18+ years; more job openings than job seekers for the first time ever; 1 million new jobs created since the tax cuts were signed into law; record low African-American unemployment rate; and record low Asian-American unemployment rate.
