adjustment tax update: AAFA has joined with more than 150 trade associations and companies for the launch of the Americans for Affordable Products coalition. We are receiving an unprecedented number of inquiries and comments from members, and have been sharing these thoughts with the Trump administration, members of the House's Ways and Means Committee, members of the Senate Finance Committee, and directly with the authors of the bill.
To get involved, you can join thousands of your colleagues in telling Congress how this provision could impact your business here. We are also hosting a meeting at MAGIC tomorrow (February 22) from 8:00 to 9:00 AM PT.
