“We are already seeing the positive impact of tax reform. More than 100 businesses and corporations are giving back to their employees and their communities as a direct response to the passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. This historic tax reform legislation has paved the way for a better American business environment, and hardworking people are benefiting from the contributions of major employers and service providers, including in my home State of Washington. Boeing announced a total investment of $300 million dedicated to corporate giving, employee training, and infrastructure improvement. Alaska Airlines provided $1,000 bonuses for more than 20,000 employees. Washington Federal is increasing salaries by 5 percent for employees making under $100,000, investing in training, technology upgrades, and making a $5 million philanthropic contribution. Pacific Power has committed to passing the company's benefits on to their consumers, which include ratepayers in the Fourth Congressional District. These benefits and tax relief will have a lasting effect on Washington families, and I look forward to continuing to work toward bigger paychecks, more jobs, and a prosperous economy. ____________________”
