WATCH: New Braunfels Small Business Owner Urges Texas Legislature to Cut the Inventory Tax

As part of the ‘Cut the Inventory Tax’ campaign, Marcie Rodriguez, a New Braunfels small businesswoman shared how Texas’s inventory tax penalizes her for trying to run a profitable business and makes it difficult for her to compete with larger companies. In the video, Rodriguez said in part:

“Our legislators need to know that we’re doing the best that we can. I don’t hold onto things because I want to or because I don’t need to sell it. A lot of times it’s the circumstances [that forces me to hold on to inventory], like the shortness of labor, or the price of the market went down in the metal commodities. It’s those kinds of things.”
