TRC¿¡¼­´Â ¹Ì±¹ÀÇ 2013³â ÀçÁ¤Àýº® ¿ì·Á¿¡ °üÇÑ ¹®Á¦Á¡µéÀ» IFDA¿¡ °øÀ¯ÇÏ¿´´Ù. The Tax Relieve Coalition (TRC) has sent a letter to Congress outlining concerns regarding the "fiscal cliff" that would impose $600 billion in spending cuts and tax increases in 2013. IFDA is a management committee member of TRC, which is an organization of more than 1,000 associations, companies, and advocacy groups dedicated to pro-growth policies. The letter urges Congress to extend current fiscal policies quickly and to make reform of the nation's tax and entitlement programs the top priority of the next Congress. Without action, the tax hikes and spending cuts would destroy economic growth and likely send the nation back into recession. If you are an IFDA member and would like more information please contact the government relations department.
