Ileana Ros-Lehtinen Co-Sponsors Death Tax Repeal

On Monday, U.S. Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, R-Fla., announced she was going to co-sponsor the Death Tax Repeal Act. Ros-Lehtinen argued on Monday that the tax hurts small businesses and farmers.

I am proud to once again support this much-needed bill which should be the No. 1 em on our tax reform agenda this year, she said. As unemployment is still far too high, we must do all we can to remove taxes that harm families, farms and small businesses. It will greatly benefit the South Florida community at this critical time.
