President Donald Trump’s Working Families Tax Cuts (WFTC), signed into law last year, are benefiting everyday Americans in the place it counts most: their wallets.
According to data from the National Association of Manufacturers, the key tax cuts – which made permanent President Trump’s tax cuts from 2017 – have supported 6 million American jobs, $540 billion in worker wages, and over $1 trillion in U.S. GDP.
States across the nation have reaped the benefits of the Trump administration’s pro-growth tax code, protecting tens of thousands of jobs. In Texas, for example, NAM reported that 547,000 American jobs were protected as a result of the WFTC, with $51 billion in wages saved for taxpayers.
The boons from the WFTC are even observable in California, per the association’s data. 708,000 jobs were reportedly protected in the Golden State, with $67 billion in wages saved and $134 billion in GDP safeguarded.
Since retaking office in 2025, President Trump has worked hard to encourage manufacturers and foreign producers to invest in the domestic fabric of America. According to the official White House investment tracker, there has been a total of $10.7 trillion in U.S. and foreign investment under Trump during this second term so far.
The United Arab Emirates, for example, has pledged $1.4 trillion in manufacturing in America. Qatar has pledged $1.2 trillion, Japan has pledged $1 trillion, and India and South Korea have both pledged $500 billion and $450 billion, respectively.
Other key companies investing billions include Meta, Apple, NVIDIA, Amazon, AT&T, Micron, Google, Pfizer, SpaceX, Ford, John Deere, and many others.
This manufacturing boom has proven to be a key feature of the Trump administration, despite Democrat opposition to the tax cuts last year.
“Democrats throw around the word ‘affordability’ a lot,” said White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt this week during a press briefing.
“But when they have the chance to vote for the largest Middle Class tax cuts in history, they refused,” she continued. “If Democrats got their way, it would have meant the largest tax increase in history – $4 trillion…that’s the Democrat solution to ‘affordability.’ It is raising your taxes.”
