Tax reform: No specific bill but asked that Congress take a comprehensive approach to tax reform and not enact reform for C corporations at the expense of flow-thru entities, including partnerships, S Corporations, and LLCs. We also asked policymakers not to tax flow-through entities with revenues over certain thresholds as C corporations or to pass legislation that would disadvantage real estate relative to other industries. We further requested that Congress maintain the deductibility of business interest and the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit. Finally, we urged Congress to enact permanent estate tax reform with a $5 million exemption, 35 percent top rate, and a retention of stepped-up basis rules. H.R. 6169, Pathway to Job Creation through a Simpler, Fairer Tax Code Act of 2012. Section 3: Expedited Consideration of a Measure Providing for Comprehensive Tax Reform.
