Op-Ed

Pulse of American economy is strong thanks to better policy

In an op-ed featured in today’s The Hill, American Action Forum President Douglas Holtz-Eakin explains how better policy actions, such as the Tax Cut and Jobs Act, have resulted in a strong U.S. economy. See excerpt below:

“The Obama administration finalized more than one costly regulation, on average, every day, imposing a cumulative cost of $890 billion on the economy, according to an analysis by the American Action Forum. The Trump administration added a mere $5 billion to this total in fiscal 2017 and plans to reduce costs by $9 billion in fiscal 2018. Similarly, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act reversed dangerous incentives in business taxation, encouraging firms to innovate, invest, and produce in the United States.”
