  • The Panel's Recommendations
    Chapter Five The Panel’s Recommendations Courtesy of Marina Sagona The Executive Order creating the Panel called for reform options that would deliver a simpler, fairer, and more pro-growth tax system. The Panel has chosen to put forward two options that achieve these goals, but accomplish them in different ways. The Panel’s options use different designs that represent a range of policy choices to simplify the tax code, remove impediments to saving and investment, and broaden the tax base. The first option, the Simplified Income Tax Plan, is a streamlined version of our current tax system that would reduce the size and costs of the tax code. The second option, the Growth and Investment Tax Plan, would take our tax system in a new direction by reducing the tax burden on saving and investment to boost economic growth without fundamentally changing how the tax burden is distributed. It would move our tax system closer to a consumption tax and impose a reduced flat rate tax on capital income received by individuals. The President’s Advisory Panel on Federal Tax Reform As the Panel pursued its work, it became clear that both reform proposals shared a common set of goals that could be achieved with identical recommendations. This resulted in a set of common elements in the two proposals that are described in the first part of this chapter. • The Panel recommends creating only two credits related to family status, a Family Credit and a Work Credit, that would simplify tax filing by consolidating family, child, and work-related tax benefits, such as the standard deduction, personal exemption, child tax credit, head of household filing status, earned income tax credit, and refundable child tax credit.
