The Legislature Neglected to Finish the Most Important Bill this Session…Economic Development & Tax Reform

The Legislature Neglected to Finish the Most Important Bill this Session…Economic Development & Tax Reform

It is important that Massachusetts small business owners join us for a brief, 15-minute call on the end of the legislative session to learn about what was left unfinished. While funding for waived UI overpayments, providing tax relief, and support for other economic development matters were abandoned in the final hours of the legislative session, in the words of Yogi Berra: it ain’t over till it’s over. But this means we need your help to urge House and Senate Leadership to reconvene in an informal session to finish what they started. Leaving out tax reforms and funding for waived UI overpayments is unacceptable. This will only take 15 minutes of your day, but is extremely important for small businesses and taxpayers. Please join us and learn how you can help!
