Make the 2017 tax cuts permanent

After the 2024 election, Barrasso said he was working with other senators on extending and making permanent the 2017 tax cuts. He said they would pursue the plan through budget reconciliation, which he noted would require winning the House and passing a budget. He also discussed clawing back some unspent or excessive federal spending to help provide tax relief.

Context: The plan was under development; Barrasso said reconciliation required House support and passage of a budget. November 10, 2024 interview about the incoming 2025 administration; not a new 2026 transition plan.

In their own words

How can we make sure we can continue these tax cuts from 2017 and extend them and make them permanent?
