Taxes

Where We Stand

The U.S. Chamber is committed to pro-growth tax policies that preserve America’s global competitiveness. We oppose tax increases that take money away from consumers and businesses that could have been invested in new products, equipment, and employees.

America has succeeded because we reward success and risk taking. Expanding the tax burden fundamentally undermines America's commitment to free enterprise.

The last thing an uncertain U.S. economy needs is a large tax increase. For businesses, especially small and medium size, a tax increase during a soft economy could push many companies into bankruptcy.
