Cato Institute Director of Tax Policy Studies Adam Michel is available for interviews in light of President Trump’s trip to Capitol Hill today to push the tax bill in the House.

In his piece “Republicans’ One, Big, Beautiful Tax Bill Needs a Makeover,” Michel writes that the bill falls short of delivering serious, pro-growth tax reform, it misses the opportunity to make the most important incentives for long-term growth permanent, and it includes at least 20 new or expanded tax subsidies, dramatically increasing the complexity of the tax code.

If Republicans want to sell this bill as pro-growth reform that increases revenues and offsets some of President Trump’s damaging trade war, they need to prioritize permanent pro-growth reforms, Michel says.

Michel also has written on SALT and IRA repeal, which you can read here and here.
