Alliance for Competitive Taxation Commends Senate Finance Committee for Advancing Tax Reform

WASHINGTON The Alliance for Competitive Taxation (ACT), a coalition of leading American businesses that employ millions of American workers, issued the following statement on Senate Committee on Finance passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act:

“Yesterday, the Senate took a significant step towards enacting pro-growth corporate tax reform by passing the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act out of the Senate Finance Committee. Tax reform is essential to creating American jobs, boosting the wages of American workers, expanding our industrial and technological base, and strengthening the domestic economy.

“We are committed to working with leaders in Congress to modernize our outdated tax code and level the playing field for American businesses and workers.”
