America First Tax Reform: Relief for All
Providing much needed tax relief for ALL Americans, ensuring everyone has the opportunity to create their own American Dream.
Remarks At An Address On Tax Reform
Indianapolis, Indiana, September 27, 2017
Tax reform has not historically been a partisan issue – and it does not have to be a partisan issue today ... There is no reason that Democrats and Republicans in Congress should not come together to deliver this giant win for the American people and begin the Middle Class Miracle once again.
America First Policies believes the current tax code is outdated, overcomplicated, and burdensome on American taxpayers. It’s time to simplify the tax code and the overwhelming process of filing taxes. It’s also time to enact tax relief for middle-class families and businesses, so we can unleash economic growth, create jobs, make businesses more competitive, and bring back trillions in corporate dollars held overseas.
