President Donald Trump warned Congress not to miss a “once-in-a-generation opportunity” to boost the economy with a massive overhaul of the U.S. tax code as he kicked off his effort to sell the American public on his tax plan Wednesday at a manufacturing plant in Springfield, Missouri.

President Donald Trump is planning to kick off one of the most important sales pitches of his presidency this week—getting Americans fired up about rewriting the U.S. tax code.

President Donald Trump will spend the next several weeks leading a public campaign in support of a tax overhaul while the White House leaves Republican lawmakers to hash out details of the plan, National Economic Council Director Gary Cohn said in an interview with the Financial Times.

President Donald Trump said he asked Republican leaders in Congress to include a measure to raise the U.S. debt ceiling in a popular veterans bill to avoid a “mess” in which they have to rely on Democrats’ support.

The White House is reaching back to a past administration for a strategy to get tax reform passed.

Representative Ted Yoho had hoped to spend the August recess in his North Florida district making the case for a tax overhaul. Instead, the third-term Republican said he doesn’t know what to say when his constituents ask what the revamp will mean for them.

Republican congressional leaders doubled down on their pledge to overhaul the U.S. tax code by the end of the year after party leaders abandoned a proposal to tax companies’ domestic sales and imports.

After times of only tepid support for President Donald Trump’s agenda, the billionaire Koch brothers are putting their financial muscle behind the White House’s plan to overhaul U.S. taxes.

A top income-tax rate of 44 percent for Americans earning more than $5 million per year isn’t under consideration, a White House official said Monday, knocking down a proposal said to be backed by top Trump adviser Steve Bannon.

After the collapse of the Obamacare repeal, Republicans may have to choose between pursuing another health bill or pushing through a tax overhaul this year, because there’s almost certainly not enough time to do both.

Republican leaders billed their decision to abandon a controversial plan to tax companies’ domestic sales and imports as an essential step toward uniting their efforts to overhaul the U.S. tax code—but its death adds new complications to an already intricate task.

A months-long effort by Senate Republicans to pass health legislation collapsed early Friday after GOP Senator John McCain joined two of his colleagues to block a stripped-down Obamacare repeal bill.

Republican leaders in Congress and the Trump administration released a joint statement Thursday on their progress on tax reform ahead of Congress’s August recess and the broad principles they plan to follow.

Republican leaders conceded on Thursday that the border-adjusted tax doesn’t have the support to continue to be part of negotiations to overhaul the tax code.

Congressional leaders and Trump administration officials have been meeting in secret to try to reach a united front for rewriting the U.S. tax code.

A retail trade group almost tripled its federal lobbying spending during the second quarter of 2017 as it tried to kill a centerpiece of House Speaker Paul Ryan’s tax plan—the border-adjusted levy on imports.

The president may fall short of a single major legislative accomplishment in 2017.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s new proposal to simply repeal Obamacare appears to be dead less than 24 hours after he dropped his replacement plan for lack of support among fellow Republicans.

House conservative leaders worry they’ll be forced to vote to advance a vehicle for a tax-code rewrite without knowing details of the plan, setting up a repeat of Congress’s troubled efforts on health-care legislation.

Senate Republicans dropped efforts to eliminate three Obamacare taxes on the wealthy in their latest health-care bill—but the party may revive that push in a tax-overhaul plan later this year.
