H.R. 1 On Agreeing to the Conference Report -- Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (12/19/2017)
Final passage of the Conference Report to H.R. 1, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. This legislation will lower taxes for individuals, small and large retailers, broaden the tax base and increase investment in American communities. Passage of tax reform is a major victory for retailers who currently pay the highest tax rate of any business sector, and for the millions of consumers who shop every day. Reform must jump start the economy, encourage companies to invest here in the United States, increase wages and expand opportunities for employees, and protect our small business community, of which the vast majority are retailers.
