- NJ50 Profile
- Justin Muzinich has served as an economic adviser
to an array of Republican Party luminaries, but
his time in the Treasury Department has involved
some of his most high-profile work. Muzinich, a
former aide to presidential candidates Mitt
Romney and Jeb Bush, helped shepherd one of the
Trump administrations biggest legislative
victories through Congress and into the
rulemaking process the 2017 rewrite of the tax
code. Serving as counselor to Secretary Steven
Mnuchin, Muzinich helped juggle pressure from
corporate America, Congress, and outside groups
who clamored to get their policy positions into
the tax law.

- Rep. Kevin Brady was chairman of the Ways and
Means Committee when Treasury worked with
Congress to craft the overhaul.In every
meeting, he played a key role in policy and
helped guide us toward a successful conclusion,
and his personal skills in working with all those
in the rooms were hugely helpful, Brady
said.Muzinichs influence has grown since the
president tapped him to become deputy secretary.
The Manhattanite father of two is in part guiding
the implementation of the tax bill, helping
Treasury craft the rules and regulations
taxpayers need in order to comply.That, along
with his other duties as Mnuchins No. 2, puts
Muzinich in a position to impact financial issues
ranging from tax deductions to cryptocurrency.

- The Harvard and Yale graduate, like many in the
Trump administrations Treasury Department, is a
recent Wall Street transplant. Muzinich
previously served as president of Muzinich Co.,
an international investment firm created by his
father, and he also worked at Morgan Stanley and
the hedge-fund EMS Capital.But Muzinich always
had an eye for policy, crafting op-eds over the
years for publications like The New York Times,
The Washington Post, and Foreign Policy, arguing
for reforming the Federal Reserve and for a
closer trade relationship with Europe.

- Muzinich served as an informal tax-policy adviser
to then-candidate Romney and later in an official
capacity to Jeb Bushs campaign. For Bush,
Muzinich crafted a tax platform that in part
served as a framework for the Trump
administrations code overhaul, featuring many of
the same key policy proposals like collapsing the
tax brackets, doubling the standard deduction,
and reducing the corporate rate. - Hobbies
