Trump signed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 in December, which consisted of a tax cut on individuals and corporations and was a major overhaul of the U.S. tax policy at large.

Republicans claimed the law would significantly reduce taxes and alleviate fiscal pressure on the middle class but critics said the bulk of the legislation’s benefits went to wealthy individuals and corporations, citing that the tax cuts for individuals are set to expire after 2025 while those on corporations never do.

The legislation has featured prominently in midterm campaigns on both sides of the aisle. Multiple polls have shown that more Americans approve of the law than did immediately after it was signed, more Americans still disapprove of it.

Trump differentiated the two plans, saying, “Not for business at all, for middle income people…the last one was for middle income and business, and our business is now coming back because of it.”

Trump did not offer further specifics on the plan.
