White House Praises Walmart On Same Day As Massive Layoffs

Description

On Thursday, Trump administration officials praised Walmart for increasing wages and delivering bonuses to employees. This even as the company laid off thousands of other workers and closing stores on the same day. In part due to the recently passed Republican tax law, Walmart announced early in the day that it would increase its minimum wage for employees to $11 an hour. It will also be giving long-time employees a $1,000 bonus. White House officials quickly jumped on the news from Walmart to highlight the positive benefits of the tax law.
