While I like a lot of what the new #USMCA trade agreement entails, I’m disappointed that Section 232 tariffs on Mexico & Canada remain in place. I look forward to working with everyone involved as #Congress considers implementing this agreement. https://bit.ly/2E2MtnK 

I’m pleased to see the #USMCA trade agreement signed today. I believe it’ll create more #jobs & expand economic opportunities for American workers, farmers & manufacturers by leveling the playing field on #trade. https://bit.ly/2E2MtnK 

Without action, the multiemployer pension system will collapse, leaving thousands of #Ohioan workers & retirees impoverished & forcing many employers to go bankrupt. After years of dedication & hard work, this is an unacceptable outcome. https://bit.ly/2RnW77E 

I'll continue working w/ my colleagues until we solve this pension crisis once & for all. We’ve made important progress towards reaching an agreement & we owe it to the millions of Americans whose pensions are at stake to find a solution. https://bit.ly/2RnW77E 

This is a strong rebuke to Russia’s attack against #Ukraine on Sunday. #Russia must immediately return the captured Ukrainian vessels and sailors, and cease its aggression against Ukraine.https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1068181367857397760 …

We have the best workers in the world in #Ohio, and I’m proud of the workers at Lordstown. They make a great product, and the UAW made concessions there. We have proven ourselves time and again. Let’s put the new product in Lordstown, @GM.

We can and should do more to ensure more cars are made in #Ohio and America, and that’s what the new tax law actually does by incentivizing companies to invest and create jobs here.

In addition, lowering our corporate tax rate to 21% actually makes doing business in the United States far more competitive, especially compared to Mexico’s 30% corporate rate.

This incentive should reduce the tax cost to the investments that would likely need to be made to the plant to bring in a new vehicle there.

Under the tax law, companies making capital expenditures are now able to deduct 100% of the cost of those investments in year one instead of having to follow complicated depreciation schedules over many years.

I’m hopeful that @GM will make a wise decision and utilize the tax law’s benefits of immediate expensing and a lower rate to retool the Lordstown plant and bring a new vehicle there.

We’ve seen countless multinational companies responding to this new level playing field by bringing jobs and investment back into the U.S. in response to the new tax law.

The new tax law was designed to encourage companies to bring back jobs and investment to the U.S. through a competitive corporate rate and our new international tax system & it’s having a positive effect on our economy.
