Washington, D.C., December 7, 2010 -
Kristie Arslan, Executive Director of the National Association for the
Self-Employed (NASE), released the following statement on the compromise
between President Obama and Congressional leaders on extending the
Bush-era tax cuts, leading the way for economic relief for the small
business community and the middle-class:
“The compromise
between President Bush and Congressional leaders on extending the
Bush-era tax cuts is a win for the small business community,” said Arslan.
“During this time of economic uncertainty, small business owners need
this economic relief for their very survival. Over 23 million individual
small business owners will now be able to keep their businesses on a
path to recovery without the threat of closing their doors due to a big
tax bill in April. NASE applauds President Obama and Congressional
leaders for working in a bipartisan way for America’s middle-class.”
