Economic & Tax Policy

Strong Economic Growth

Increasing Taxes is Bad for the Economy

Economic recovery must be our nation's foremost domestic priority. The U.S. Chamber is committed to pro-growth tax policies that preserve America's global competitiveness and is opposed to tax increases that reduce businesses' ability to grow, invest, and create jobs.
 
A successful economy depends on a tax code that rewards achievement, encourages investment, and promotes growth. In these troubled economic times, it would be the height of economic folly to target business - or any group of Americans - for a major tax increase.

The U.S. Chamber's pro-growth agenda urges Congress and the Obama administration to enact
policies that bring tax rates in line with our global competitors and make compliance simpler and
easier:
