Statement By U.S. Treasury Secretary Mnuchin On President Trump’s Tax Reform Speech

U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven T. Mnuchin issued the following statement today after President Trump's speech on tax reform in Mandan, North Dakota:

"President Trump made a forceful case for comprehensive tax reform to level the playing field for American job creators and spur economic growth that will yield millions of new jobs. Middle-income families in North Dakota and across the country deserve a tax cut, and the President is committed to simplifying the tax code to put more money in their pockets. During today's visit, the President put a personal face on the harmful impact the "death tax" has on farmers and ranchers in North Dakota. I look forward to working with Congress to provide relief from this and other onerous taxes, jumpstart our economy, increase wages, and create more opportunity for Americans."
