Closing Corporate Tax Loopholes with Combined Reporting

The Food & Business Tax Fairness Act (SB0502/HB1350 by Sen. Tim Burchett and Rep. Charles Sargent), would end a wide range of tax evasion strategies, that allow large, multi-state corporations to avoid paying the same taxes that our locally-owned and operated businesses must pay. Part of the revenue recovered from this reform would be used to pay for a modest reduction in the state food tax with the balance going to help meet the current budget shortfall.
