Mr. Speaker, today I am reintroducing the Meal Tax Reduction Act. This legislation, which I also introduced in the last session of Congress, is designed to alleviate some of the tax code inequities that hurt the food service industry.
I urge all of my colleagues to support this important proposal, because adoption is truly a loving option for women and families.
Restoring the meal tax deduction would help create new jobs in our economy, often for people who are trying to enter the workforce for the first time.
