Chairman Jason Smith, the youngest Republican ever to lead the Ways and Means Committee, joins 13th & Park for an in-depth discussion on taxes, trade, health care, and America’s economic future.

From his roots on a fourth-generation Missouri farm to chairing the only committee whose authority is written into the Constitution, Smith shares his journey and perspective on leading one of Washington’s most consequential committees.

In this candid conversation, Smith discusses the passage of the “big, beautiful bill,” the importance of small business tax relief, the challenges of high interest rates, and why safeguarding Social Security and Medicare must be bipartisan. He also talks about growing up without running water, what keeps him up at night, and the values that drive his service.
