Heard on the Hill
Watch the “Growing Our Economy and Creating Jobs” Hearing
Kicking off a hearing titled “Growing Our Economy and Creating Jobs” yesterday, House Ways and Means Tax Subcommittee Chairman Vern Buchanan (R-FL) recapped the key results from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act passed late last year, His remarks emphasized that these recent tax reform measures “… benefit all businesses, big and small, and create an economic climate that spurs economic growth.” From a Social Security viewpoint, of course, economic growth and job growth are important factors in the provision of income needed to provide benefits to current and future beneficiaries, and are viewed as an important element of the overall Social Security funding cycle.
