In addition, involved with a service provider's effots to recognize a ""tool reimbursement"" program for technicians by the IRS. Supported provisions in House Bill 4 that repeals the Form 1099 filing requirement. Also concentrated on supporting a version of the estate tax issue. Our policy is to see an estate tax law that would support a $5 million dollar exemption (indexed for inflation) at a maximum tax rate of 35%. Supported repeal of the 3% income tax withholding requirements when payments are made to equipment dealers and other businesses by governmental entities for goods or services after December 31, 2011 as required in the Tax Increase Prevention and Reconciliation Act of 2005. Supported changes in IRS Code Section 263A enacted as a part of the Tax Reform Act of 1986 requiring taxpayers to capitalize direct and indirect costs properly allocable to certain real property and tangible personal property produced by the taxpayer and the real property and certain personal property that is acquired by the taxpayer for resale. Section 263A applies when a business has more than $10 million in sales for the year. The section is receiving renewed attention from the IRS as more and more businesses are exceeding the $10 million sales threshold. The IRS has not changed the required sales level since the original enactment in 1986. We supported a review by Congress of the existing threshold and recommend a new threshold of at least $50 million dollars as a way to exempt smaller business from this unnecessary burden and tax calculation.","Agriculture, Dept of (USDA),Energy, Dept of,Environmental Protection Agency (EPA),Federal Communications Commission (FCC),Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration,HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,Internal Revenue Service (IRS),Justice, Dept of (DOJ),Natl Labor Relations Board (NLRB),Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC),SENATE,State, Dept of (DOS),Transportation, Dept of (DOT),White House Office",,19226,0,0,2011-07-05T16:18:19.787000-04:00 1107526,1e9a14e9-e29d-4ea5-8ee0-584a5e3413f1,Q2,"HUONG C.
