Norquist Statement Praising Senate Passage of Tax Cuts and Jobs Act

Following Senate passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, ATR President Grover Norquist released the following statement:

“The swamp mocked the idea that Republicans could enact sweeping tax reform in the first 12 months of the Trump presidency.  It was too much. Too big a hill to climb. Everyone else had failed.  Couldn’t be done.

“But it is happening. Tax Reform has now passed the House and Senate and after conference will soon be signed by President Trump.

“This is big.  A bigger deal than Obamacare. Big job creation. Big middle class tax cuts. Big changes in an outdated tax code. 

“They said it couldn’t be done.  It is happening now. It will change the world.”
