“Last month, the House passed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Already these pro-growth policies are having a positive impact. Businesses are making investments in operations and people. Thane Brooks operates a resource center for children with special needs in Alpharetta, Georgia. Because businesses can now immediately expense new equipment purchases, Thane is able to open a second facility to serve even more special needs children. Georgia-based Aflac announced that it will increase contributions to employee retirement plans. AT&T, with nearly 3,000 employees in the Sixth District, gave a $1,000 bonus to nonmanagement employees as a direct result of the tax cut bill. Overall, more than 2 million workers across the country are feeling the benefits of this law through increased wages, bonuses, and more retirement dollars. And with paychecks for nearly every American set to increase in the coming weeks, there is even more good news on the horizon for American families. ____________________”
