Chairman Smith Announces Hearing on The Need to Immediately Make Permanent the Trump Tax Cuts for Working Families and Small Businesses

January 10, 2025

Washington, D.C. – House Committee on Ways and Means Chairman Jason Smith (MO-08) announced that the Committee will hold a hearing on the significance of making permanent the Trump Tax Cuts for America’s working families and Small Businesses on Tuesday, January 14 at 10:00 AM.

Chairman Smith issued the following statement:

“For the past two years the Ways and Means Committee has been hard at work to extend and build on the success of President Trump’s tax cuts – the most significant tax relief legislation in a generation that unleashed America’s potential and created the best economy of my lifetime. Tuesday’s hearing will highlight the success of – and the need to immediately make permanent – the Trump tax cuts that helped working-class families, small businesses, and farmers, grew the U.S. economy at a full percentage point higher than the previous 10-year average and beat economist forecasts. We achieved record 50-year low levels of poverty and unemployment and restored American manufacturing. American families and small businesses need certainty that they will not be hit with a $4.6 trillion tax increase at the end of this year. Without action, workers paychecks one year from today will look drastically different as they fork over even more to Uncle Sam.”
