On the heels of House Ways and Means Committee passage of pro-growth tax legislation, chief financial officers (CFOs) from Business Roundtable member companies flew in to Washington to meet with policymakers and emphasize the urgency of advancing the bill.
In meetings with Members of Congress and the Trump Administration, CFOs delivered this message — it’s ‘go time’ to pass a comprehensive, pro-growth tax package that builds on the 2017 tax reform. The CFOs also discussed how the Ways and Means legislation will:
- Maintain a competitive corporate rate;
- Promote private sector innovation;
- Strengthen domestic investment; and
- Expand immediate expensing to drive growth and increase wages.
