Winning! Walmart Raises Wages, Gives Bonuses to Over One MILLION Employees Thanks to Tax Reform


Walmart has joined the long list of corporations that are providing bonus, raise wages, and expanded benefits to their employees in response to President Donald Trump signing the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

“Today, we are building on investments we’ve been making in associates, in their wages and skills development,” said Doug McMillon, Walmart president and chief executive officer, on Thursday “It’s our people who make the difference and we appreciate how they work hard to make every day easier for busy families.”

From Breitbart:

Walmart plans to increase its employees’ starting wage to $11 an hour, expand maternity and paternal leave benefits, as well as provide a one-time cash bonus up to $1,000. The company added that they will offer financial assistance to their associates who decide to adopt a child; the credit will total $5,000 per child and may be used for expenses such as adoption agency fees, translation fees, and legal costs.

The combined wage and benefit increases will impact well over one million Walmart employees. McMillon added:


The American economy continues to prosper under President Donald Trump. Well over 100 American companies gave their employees up to $2,000 in bonuses after President Trump signed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Several corporations such as AT&T, Comcast, and Nationwide also increased their 401(k) match rate, raise their minimum wages, and increased domestic investment because of the Republican tax bill.

Reports suggest that Apple will repatriate roughly $200 billion in foreign cash because of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.
