President Trump said that they will be “cutting regulation massively,” going on to say that a reduction of “75 percent, maybe more” was thought.
According to The Washington Examiner, “President Trump told a gathering of business leaders Monday that he plans to undo three-quarters of existing regulations while slashing corporate taxes in order to encourage building, a move toward fulfilling his campaign promise to be “the greatest jobs president God ever created.””
In addition, Trump will be signing an executive order that would remove the U.S. from the Trans Pacific Partnership agreement.
“The executive order, and possibly others, are being signed after a weekend of introductory meetings and perfunctory duties marking the transfer of power … His chief of staff, Reince Priebus, said on “Fox News Sunday” the president would spend his first full week in office undoing some of Obama’s agenda and planned to sign executive orders on immigration and trade,” Fox News reports.
