Soy Growers Urge Congress to Pass Tax Extenders

Jan 25, 2018

Soy growers are urging Congress to pass a seamless multi-year extension of the “tax extenders” as soon as possible.

The American Soybean Association (ASA) joined a range of several business, transportation, energy and ag stakeholders in a letter this week to both House and Senate leaders, stating the extension of these tax provisions is vital to the economy and jobs.

“The expiration of these tax provisions in 2016, and the failure to extend them before the end of 2017, has negatively impacted businesses and individuals that make important planning decisions based on tax policy,” the groups state in the letter. “Every day that these provisions remain lapsed creates further confusion and uncertainty for taxpayers, while needlessly undermining economic growth and job creation in the private sector.”
