United Framework for Fixing Our Broken Tax Code: An Analysis
Tax Notes
(2017)
Abstract
The Trump Administration, along with the House Ways and Means Committee and the Senate Finance Committee, issued a “Unified Framework” for tax reform on September 27, 2017. This framework is full of paradoxes and inconsistencies that are very hard to simply explain by saying that the proposal is just a “template for the tax-writing committees that will develop legislation,” with which Congress will fill in the missing parts. The proposal is, in fact, another link in the direction this administration and the current Republican Party are using to benefit the wealthy at the expense of lower- and middle-class taxpayers.
