WASHINGTON, D.C., July 27 – AAHOA President and CEO Chip Rogers issued the following
statement in response to 4.1 percent economic growth rate:
“The 4.1 percent growth in GDP over the second quarter confirms that the American economy is
surging. While there are caveats as to this specific figure, such as the activities of businesses
trying to get ahead of impending tariffs, fundamental economic indicators like low
unemployment, increased household wealth and consumer spending, and business development
demonstrate steady growth and solid momentum. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act gave a jolt of
adrenaline to the economy that we see reflected here – that’s why it’s important for Congress to
pass Tax Reform 2.0 and make many of the growth-producing provisions of the tax law
permanent.”
