Tax Reform
Promoted comprehensive approach to tax reform that avoids enacting reform for C corporations at the expense of flow-through entities. Support maintaining current law regarding: (1) the tax treatment of carried interest; (2) the full deductibility of business interest; (3) the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit and tax-exempt private activity housing bonds; (4) the permanent estate tax rules enacted in January 2013; (5) Section 1031 like-kind exchanges; (6) the 27.5-year depreciation period for multifamily buildings; (7) depreciation recapture; and (8) the deductibility of state and local real estate taxes. Finally, we favor: (1) loosening FIRPTA rules to incent foreign investment in U.S. real estate; and (2) expanding incentives for energy efficiency in commercial buildings (i.e., Internal Revenue Code Section 179D).
H.R. 1, Tax Reform Act of 2014. Section 1001: Simplification of individual income tax rates. Section 1002: Deduction for adjusted net capital gain.

Section 3431: Termination of private activity bonds. Section 3621: Ordinary income treatment in the case of partnership interest held in connection with performance of services.
Senate Committee on Finance Chairman's Staff Discussion Draft to Reform Certain Business Provisions. Section 2: Repeal of Certain Specialized Expensing Provisions (i.e., Section 179D). Section 11: Pooled Asset Cost Recovery System and Depreciation of Real Property. Section 12: Rules Related to Treatment of Gains from Depreciable Property. Section 15: Repeal of Like-Kind Exchanges.
Obama Administration's Fiscal Year 2015 Budget Revenue Proposal to Modify Like-Kind Exchange Rules for Real Property. Also, asked that the Obama Administration not include this proposal in its forthcoming FY 2016 Budget.

Section 125: Extension of Bonus Depreciation. Section 127: Extension of increased expensing limitations and treatment of certain real property as section 179 property.
