Just hours after the Republican tax cut plan was sent to President Trump’s desk, it is already paying dividends to American workers.
Despite a continuous stream of misleading talking points and chicken little-esque statements from Senate Democrats, employers are already announcing new investments in American workers, citing the tax plan as the key factor in their decision. AT&T announced this afternoon that it would pay a $1,000 bonus to more than 200,000 employees and invest an additional $1 billion in capital expenditures in the United States. Boeing followed suit, announcing $300 million in employee-related and charitable investments as a result of the plan. Even before the law takes effect, Democrats’ dishonest rhetoric is already falling apart.
“Despite desperate predictions of doom and gloom from Senate Democrats, it’s already clear the Republican tax cut plan is working for the American people,” said NRSC Communications Director Katie Martin. “As the tax plan takes effect, Democrats on the ballot in 2018 will be hard-pressed to explain why they voted against a law that is putting more money in families’ pockets and boosting our economy.”
