Issue Position: CONTINUE TO REFORM OUR TAX CODE.

Issue Position

By: Jake Ellzey

Date: Jan. 1, 2018

Issues: Taxes

The Trump tax cuts are a good start, but more work is needed. I will insist on a complete review of our tax code -- that means ending the most egregious taxes that impact working families and looking for additional tax cuts that spur new spending on innovation, research and job creation. Ultimately, I would like to see our country move to a simpler and fairer flat tax.
