Wayne Allard: “I do not believe we can continue to disregard the impact that these unemployment taxes have on small businesses…”

On the recordJune 25, 1997
I do not believe we can continue to disregard the impact that these unemployment taxes have on small businesses, particularly the small businesses that are just starting out. We need to encourage people to go in business for themselves. We need to encourage people to someday think in terms of being their own boss and being self-sufficient. These types of tax provisions do have a disproportionate impact on small businesses, particularly those just starting out.
