Tax Reform
Draft Raises Serious Concerns
WASHINGTON, D.C., February
26, 2014 — National Federation of Independent
Business (NFIB) Vice President of
Federal Public Policy Brad Close made the following statement in response
to today’s tax reform draft introduced by Chairman Camp:
“NFIB has
long advocated tax reform that achieves lower rates and a simpler code,” said Close. “While we appreciate Chairman Camp pursuing
tax reform that lowers some rates, we are very concerned that this plan does
not address the core issues that are important to all small businesses:
simplifying the code, leveling the playing field for all businesses, and
addressing both corporate and individual tax rates. We look forward to working with members of the
Ways & Means Committee and Chairman Camp to achieve comprehensive tax
reform that does not pick winners and losers based on size and type of business.”
NFIB’s positions are based on
member balloting and extensive research by the NFIB Research Foundation. NFIB
produced the survey Taxes and
Spending: Small Business Owner Opinions last year that outlines the tax reform
priorities of small business owners.
