Culver Plans Tax Bill to Shield Family Farms from Loopholes
Congressman John Culver reintroduces tax legislation to curb loopholes favoring wealthy nonfarmers in farm ventures. He cites land-price inflation and calls for safeguards including loss offsets up to 15 000 dollars nonfarm income, carryover and carryback provisions, with support from major farm groups and backing from a bipartisan Senate effort. He seeks early Ways and Means hearings and additional cosponsors.
