Bill Archer: “Tax reform gives us the opportunity to address these matters, to ease frustrations, and to restore faith and confidence…”

I have always been in opposition to the alternative minimum tax. It made no sense.

Do not include any retroactive provision in your tax reform.

Well, clearly the 1986 tax reform took a lot of time to put together, and in the end, it prevailed with some very hard-hitting pressures from the top on both sides.

I certainly believe that it is desirable to have bipartisanship, particularly on something that is as important as fundamental tax reform.
