Statement by Secretary Mnuchin on President Trump’s Tax
Reform Speech in Pennsylvania
October 11, 2017

Harrisburg – U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven T. Mnuchin issued the following statement today in
response to President Trump's tax reform speech in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania:
"Today the President stood with nearly 1,000 hardworking men and women in Pennsylvania to
rea irm our commitment to give America's workers lower taxes and a pay raise. We know that
by making the individual tax code simpler and fairer, and by making our business tax rates more
competitive, we will deliver tax reform that Americans deserve, but which they have not had in
over 30 years.
"In the President's speech, we saw how passionate he is when talking to the people who are the
backbone of our economic system, but who have been forgotten by Washington. By leveling the
playing field through tax reform, we will put money back in the pockets of middle-income
families and workers.
"We are working with Congress to pass historic tax relief and reform that will invigorate
American manufacturing and ensure that the many truckers who attended the President's
speech today will have plenty of American-made goods to deliver to every corner of our nation."
