Today is officially Tax Day, and parts of the tax code have changed significantly over the years. One significant change occurred during President Donald Trump's first term with the implementation of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Currently, Republicans hold a supermajority, and it's time to renew many of the cuts established in 2017 that are set to expire soon. While many GOP members advocate for maintaining these cuts, some are seeking modifications. FOX Business Anchor David Asman joins the Rundown to explain what these tax cuts entail, why many in the business community believe they'd be beneficial to remain in effect, and why extending them may still be a political challenge.
Many police departments across the U.S. have a shared problem: not enough officers. In one survey by the International Association of Police Chiefs, nearly two-thirds of responding departments are reducing services---or specialized units--to meet patrol needs. This can also mean that police can respond to calls or solve crimes. Criminologist Alex del Carmen discusses how negative publicity about police work has made the nationwide police shortage worse, and what he thinks can be done to help recruitment.

Business Rundown: Wall Street Watching the American Consumer
After last week’s historical volatility, many investors woke up this Monday with hope as they were happy to see President Trump rolling back some tariffs for the tech industry. However, the break for companies like Apple and Dell may be short-lived, as Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick warned over the weekend that some of their products could still face levies in a month or two. That period may be enough for some on Wall Street, but there are growing concerns about how Main Street is responding to the shifting Trump tariff strategy and recession chatter. FOX Business’ Lydia Hu speaks with Siebert Financial Chief Investment Officer Mark Malek about the troubling consumer sentiment numbers and why he’s optimistic about the President's ability to negotiate trade deals that benefit all Americans.
