And we rebuilt our alliances around the world to support Ukraine’s resistance against Russia’s illegal war, responsibly manage our economic relationship with China, strengthen the multilateral development banks, and end the race to the bottom in corporate taxes.

We strengthened the resilience of the U.S. financial system while navigating a regional banking crisis, as well as two debt limit impasses, and we modernized the @IRSNews to make our tax system fairer and more responsive.
