President Trump on Friday pressed Republican lawmakers to act swiftly on legislation to overhaul the country’s tax code, urging them not to wait until the end of the month.
“Republicans must start the Tax Reform/Tax Cut legislation ASAP. Don’t wait until the end of September. Needed now more than ever. Hurry!” Trump wrote on Twitter.

Trump’s request to lawmakers came a day after the Senate passed a stopgap measure to fund the government past the end of September and raise the nation’s debt limit.
