The seven hundred or so acts summarized in this compilation represent the major acts approved by Congress in its efforts to determine national policies to be carried out by the executive branch, to authorize appropriations to carry out these policies, and to fulfill its responsibility of assuring that such actions are being carried out in accordance with congressional intent. Also included are those treaties considered to be of similar importance. An extensive index allows each entry in this work to be located with relative ease.

  • TEMPORARY TAX POLICY in the UNITED STATES Mark J
    TEMPORARY TAX POLICY IN THE UNITED STATES Mark J. Mazur Robert C. Pozen Director Urban-Brookings Tax Policy Center before the Committee on Ways and Means, Subcommittee on Select Revenue Measures United States House of Representatives Hearing on Temporary Policy in the Internal Revenue Code March 12, 2019 Chairman Thompson, Ranking Member Smith, and Members of the Subcommittee, thank you for inviting me to appear today to discuss issues surrounding temporary tax policy. The views I express in this testimony are my own and should not be attributed to the Tax Policy Center, the Urban Institute, the Brookings Institution, their boards, or their funders. BACKGROUND The history of temporary tax policy in the United States is long, going back at least to the 1960s. Just one example can help illustrate this history. In 1962, an investment tax credit was enacted to help spur business investment. The credit rate was 7 percent, and the credit could be claimed on new tangible personal property; generally, this covered machinery and equipment and was intended to exclude buildings. A limited amount of used property ($100,000) also was eligible. The amount of credit claimed was subtracted from the asset basis subject to depreciation, but this provision was dropped in the Revenue Act of 1964. At that point, the credit provided a flat 7 percent tax subsidy for investment in qualified property. But then Congress and the Johnson administration became concerned about inflation and an overheated economy, so the credit was suspended from October 1966 to March 1967, then reinstated. The investment credit was repealed in the Tax Reform Act of 1969 but reinstated in the Revenue Act of 1971.

Juster*** On May 3, 1982, Houdaille Industries, Inc. (Houdaille), a U.S. machine tool manufacturer, filed a petition with the U.S. Government requesting that the President suspend indefinitely the investment tax credit available to purchasers of numerically controlled machining cen- ters and punching machines imported from Japan.' The petition was based on Section 103 of the Revenue Act of 1971, which gives the Presi- dent authority to deny application of the investment tax credit on im- ported articles when the government of the exporting country "engages in discriminatory or other acts (including tolerance of international car- tels) or policies unjustifiably restricting United States commerce."'2 The petition alleged that the Government of Japan had for many years fos- tered a cartel among Japanese machine tool manufacturers, which had given them an unfair advantage in competing with American manufac- turers in the U.S.

  • The Section 199 Production Activities Deduction: Background and Analysis Name Redacted Analyst in Economics
    The Section 199 Production Activities Deduction: Background and Analysis name redacted Analyst in Economics July 6, 2017 Congressional Research Service 7-.... www.crs.gov R41988 The Section 199 Production Activities Deduction: Background and Analysis Summary In 2004, Congress added the Section 199 domestic production activities deduction to the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). The deduction was intended to achieve a number of policy goals, including compensating for repeal of the extraterritorial income (ETI) export-subsidy provisions, supporting the domestic manufacturing sector, and reducing effective corporate tax rates. Under current law, qualified activities are eligible for a deduction equal to 9% of the lesser of taxable income derived from qualified production activities, or taxable income. Eligible income includes that derived from the production of property that was manufactured, produced, grown, or extracted within the United States. Electricity, natural gas, and potable water production is also eligible, as is film production. Domestic construction projects, as well as engineering and architectural services associated with such projects, also qualify. Certain oil- and gas-related activities also qualify for the deduction, but at a reduced rate of 6%. Overall, more than one-third of corporate taxable income qualifies for the deduction. In 2013, 66% of corporate claims of the Section 199 deduction were attributable to the manufacturing sector. Another 16% of the value of corporate claims came from the information sector, while 3% were attributable to the mining sector.
