Manufacturers: The Time Is Now to Finish the Job and Preserve President Trump’s 2017 Tax Reforms
Washington, D.C. – NAM President and CEO Jay Timmons released the following statement on the passage of the House budget resolution:
“Today, the House has taken a historic, pivotal step to advance a comprehensive reconciliation package that will preserve President Trump’s job-creating tax reforms of 2017, while also unleashing American energy dominance.
“Manufacturers urge Congress to move with a sense of urgency. Every day we wait means jobs and opportunity lost. As part of the comprehensive, commonsense manufacturing strategy that America needs, protecting tax reform will strengthen our industry and our communities. It’s time to continue this momentum and act now to Make America Great for Manufacturing Again. When manufacturing wins, America wins.”
