“Mr. Speaker, as I said early on, we are seeing tremendous growth in businesses both large and small. Previously I highlighted a great American company, Aflac, but an example of a small company that is seeing the benefits of tax reform is a company called Shred-X in Griffin, Georgia. Shred-X is a small business offering paper shredding and recycling services to approximately 3,000 clients throughout Atlanta and central Georgia, and they are using their tax savings to invest in their business. They are planning on buying a new truck and hiring a potential employee. Now, for a company like Shred-X, that is a true small business that employs ten people, the addition of one truck and another employee makes a big difference. Shred-X owner Cade Joiner told me: ``This is just one practical example of how tax reform is helping us here on Main Street.'' It is really exciting to see our small-business owners really beginning to see the benefits of tax reform and beginning to see the benefits with their employees as well Mr. Speaker, my next guest is Mr. Buddy Carter. Representative Carter has been an outspoken advocate for the benefits of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. He represents a district where the median household income in the First District of Georgia will see an average savings of $1,220. Mr. Speaker, I yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from Georgia (Mr. Carter).”
