Republican lawmakers are urging Congress to make the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act permanent, emphasizing its positive impact on the U.S. economy. They argue that the tax cuts have contributed to economic growth, job creation, and lower unemployment since their enactment. Lawmakers warn that failure to extend these tax cuts could result in a $4 trillion tax increase and jeopardize 4.1 million jobs, adversely affecting families, small businesses, farmers, and workers.
Additionally, supporters highlight President Trump's tariff policies as effective tools for encouraging fair trade negotiations and attracting investments to the country. They distinguish tariffs from taxes, noting that tariffs serve as a negotiating mechanism rather than a permanent fiscal measure. Congressional action to solidify these policies is seen as crucial for sustaining economic momentum and protecting American economic interests.
