George Rice is a veteran, a husband, a father—and the proud co-owner of 5x5 Brewing Co. in Mission, Texas. Back in 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act gave him something powerful: breathing room. With more of his earnings staying in his pocket—not Washington’s—George invested in his business, hired more people, and grew 5x5 into a place that now serves the community, supports other veterans, and strengthens his local economy. The 2017 Tax Cuts removed barriers to success, and gave him an opportunity. Now, with those tax cuts set to expire, entrepreneurs like George are staring down higher tax bills, fewer resources, and less certainty. These aren’t just policy debates. They’re real-life decisions about whether a business can hire, expand, or survive. George’s story is one of many—but it’s a clear reminder: tax relief empowers people to build their version of the American Dream. It’s time to extend the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act—and protect the progress we’ve made.
