Craft Distillers Need Our Help!
Legislative Update: The first tax reduction for American Craft Spirit makers since the Civil War will expire at the end of 2020.
Craft Distillers, Brewers, Vintners, and Cider makers need our help!
Nuts & Bolts:
Congress passed The Craft Beverage Modernization and Tax Reform Act in 2017. The legislation was renewed for one year in 2019 and will expire at the end of 2020. H.R. 1175 and its companion version in the Senate S. 362 would make the tax cuts permanent.
How Can You Help?
Make your voice heard. Ask your member of Congress to support H.R 1175

(@YourMember) – I encourage you to support H.R. 1175. Craft Distillers and Brewers are vital to our economy. Most are small business owners and operate on fragile margins. If the Craft Beverage Modernization and Tax Reform Act expires, it will cost jobs
