In an April 8 Real Clear Policy Op-Ed, SBE Council President & CEO Karen Kerrigan writes that when it comes to policy, "There are still too many theoretical assumptions driving policy ideas in state capitols and on Capitol Hill and not enough common sense." However, regarding the "Working Families Tax Cut Act" (One Big Beautiful Bill) Congressional Republicans and President Trump got it right. Kerrigan reviews various provisions of the Act and how small businesses are responding:
"When our elected officials get tax policy right, as Republicans in Congress did by passing the 'Working Families Tax Cuts Act,' small business owners and their employees are freer to build, create, better serve customers, and support the economic vibrancy of local communities. When Washington delivers certainty, Main Street delivers opportunity and growth."
