On the recordJuly 18, 2018
Mr. Speaker, the latest results are in from the Republican tax cuts, with Trump deregulation, producing jobs: $2,059 average tax cut for a typical family of four; $2,000 new per child tax credit, double the old amount. Sixteen regulations rolled back through the Congressional Review Act process, the most in history. Ninety percent of Americans are receiving bigger paychecks under the new withholding tables. A 3.4 percent increase in real disposable income in the first quarter of 2018; a record high level of U.S. exports of goods and services, over $200 billion; 3.7 million jobs created since November 2016; 1.3 million jobs created since the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act became law; 6.6 million job openings as of May 2018, meaning more jobs than job seekers. Sixty-five percent of Americans now say it is a good time to find a quality job. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September 11th in the global war on terrorism. ____________________
