1. Tax-News.com: US Senate Receives 1,400 Tax Reform
Submissions
01 May 2015
Senate Finance Committee Chairman Orrin Hatch (R - Utah) and its Ranking Member Ron Wyden (D
- Oregon) have released over 1,400 submissions that have been sent to the Committee's five
bipartisan tax reform working groups.
In March, the Committee sought input from the public in an effort to provide additional data and
information to the working groups, which are currently analyzing existing tax law and examining
policy trade-offs and available reform options within each group's designated area.

2. Public submissions were accepted until April 15. 448 submissions were received on individual
income tax; 332 on business income tax; 128 on savings and investment; 347 on international tax;
and 207 on community development and infrastructure.
"We thank the stakeholders and public who provided us with this valuable data and input," Hatch
and Wyden said. "These submissions have equipped us with the ability to better evaluate how
reforming the tax code will affect both American families and business of all kinds."
Each of the bipartisan working groups is currently working to produce findings on current tax policy
and legislative recommendations within its area, with the goal of having recommendations from each
group completed by the end of May this year.
