Iowa business leaders outline tax reform priorities
Four prominent Iowa industry executives presented the Iowa Taxpayers Association 1969 legislative program in Des Moines. They urged excluding manufacturing machinery from sales tax, repealing service taxes on construction and advertising, and restoring full federal tax deductibility for corporate Iowa taxes. The leaders highlighted three goals: improve the tax climate, fix inequities from 1967 changes, and curb spending. They warned that expanding personal property and sales tax credits would worsen inequality and called for an interim review and repeal of the sales tax credit.
