Dear Editor,

There has been a lot of ads on TV recently suggesting that Senator Ron Johnson was responsible for passage of a “tax loophole” that only benefitted himself and the wealthy. Nothing could be further from the truth!

Senator Johnson championed the passage of Sec.199a to the Internal Revenue Code. Sec.199a provides a Qualified Business Income Deduction (QBID) of up to 20% of qualified business or farm income for individuals only. It does not apply to C Corporations. This provision benefits millions of taxpayers, large and small, not just a privileged few.

Sincerely,

Harvey W. Kubly, CPA
