On Friday, U.S. Senator Todd Young (R-Ind.) participated in a roundtable discussion with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, Greater Fort Wayne Inc., and northeast Indiana business leaders focused on the pro-growth business tax provisions in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. The event was held at First Gear Engineering & Technology in Fort Wayne.
The law, also known as the Working Families Tax Cut, is a forward-looking, pro-growth set of policies that are vital to maintaining America's prosperity and competitive edge and will create new opportunities for Hoosier workers and businesses. More information on the law, which Young supported, can be found here.
“The One Big Beautiful Bill includes numerous pro-growth policies that will help Hoosier small businesses and workers, including my legislation to restore full expensing for domestic R&D,” said Senator Young. “I am grateful to First Gear in Fort Wayne for hosting this important conversation.”
“Small and mid‑sized businesses are the backbone of our local economy, creating jobs, driving innovation, and supporting our communities,” said John Urbahns, President and CEO of Greater Fort Wayne Inc. “Making the 2017 tax cuts permanent has given these employers the long‑term certainty they need to plan ahead, reinvest in their operations, and stay competitive. When businesses can count on a stable tax environment, they’re far more confident about hiring, expanding, and taking the kinds of risks that fuel economic growth.”
