President Donald Trump delivered a speech on tax reform in Bismarck, North Dakota on Sept. 6. This is his second pitch on taxes following the one he made in Missouri last week. Trump called on Congress to work with him on overhauling the current tax code, which he called “a giant self-inflicted economic wound.”

“Our painful tax system has become a massive barrier to America’s economic comeback,” he said at a North Dakota refinery in Mandan.
