?? Advocating for Small Businesses PRINTING United Alliance is calling on Congress to prioritize small businesses by making vital tax relief provisions permanent. These tax measures, introduced under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, are set to expire in 2025. Key benefits like the 100% bonus depreciation deduction and relief from restrictive interest expense caps have empowered countless small businesses, fueling investment and growth. With these provisions at risk, now is the time to ensure a stable economic future for small enterprises. The Alliance urges legislative action to secure long-term relief for businesses driving innovation and local economies. ??
