Board Member Praises SIA Staff for Work on Tax Cut Extension
At SIA's most recent board meeting, Board Member Chet Helck of Raymond James commended SIA for its recent success saying, "Earlier this year, we achieved a major legislative victory when the President signed into law a two-year extension of the lower tax rates on capital gains and dividends. The SIA team deserves our praise and thanks, including Marc Lackritz, SIA's president, Jon Traub, a tax policy expert and Richard Hunt, who led the effort. Richard's hard work and dedication will save American investors over $22 billion in the next two years. His passion for the topic and leadership in the Washington community were critical to the bill's passage. Thanks to this group's tireless commitment, this broad based tax reform will provide continued marketplace certainty and stability for America's investing class, which now includes more than 50% of this nation's households."
