Latta Statement on ‘Better Way’ Tax Proposal

Congressman Bob Latta (R-Bowling Green) released the following statement after House Republicans released “A Better Way for Tax Reform,” a blueprint for an overhaul of the tax code. The full tax blueprint is available here.
 
“It’s been three decades since the last serious overhaul of our tax system, and it’s time that our tax code is brought up to speed with a modern economy. Today’s proposal does away with the complexity and confusion that plagues our current tax code and replaces it with a simpler and fairer system. Not only will this proposal help Ohio families as they file their taxes, it will also put American companies on an equal playing field with their global competitors. That means more innovation, growth, and jobs being created here at home.
 
"In addition, this proposal will create fairer tax collection by breaking up the IRS and creating a more transparent and accountable system. This ‘Better Way’ tax proposal is about growing our economy and letting Americans keep more of their hard-earned money. I commend Ways and Means Chairman Kevin Brady for putting together a tax reform plan that puts the people, not Washington, first.”
