Securing major tax cuts is one of President Trump’s big agenda items this year.
During this week’s address to Congress, he said the 2017 tax cuts need to become permanent.
“It’s a very, very big part of our plan. We had tremendous success in our first term within a very big part of our plan. We’re seeking permanent income tax cuts all across the board and to get urgently needed relief to Americans hit especially hard by inflation. I’m calling for no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, and no tax on Social Security benefits for our great seniors.”
