WSWA Statement in Support of H.R. 1: “Tax Cut and Jobs Act”

(WASHINGTON, D.C.) – Wine & Spirits Wholesalers of America (WSWA), the trade association representing the country’s family-owned distributors today praised Chairman Brady’s recently released tax reform plan, H.R. 1, the “Tax Cut and Jobs Act,” and urged Congress to act quickly.

 

WSWA President and CEO Craig Wolf released the following statement:

 

“American family-owned wine and spirits wholesalers employ more than 74,000 workers at 3,000 facilities across the country. Our members, their workers and the nation’s economy will all benefit under H.R. 1.”

 

“Tax reform means that family-owned wholesalers and businesses like them will have more money to hire and train workers, expand benefits and services, purchase new equipment and modernize facilities. Tax reform also means working Americans will see more take-home pay and spend less time doing their taxes.”

 

“It has been far too long since the last overhaul of our tax code. H.R. 1, the “Tax Cut and Jobs Act” will keep America competitive and will spark economic growth in the years to come. WSWA strongly supports the plan and urges Congress to act quickly to enact lasting tax reform.”
