Farm Bureau seeks inheritance tax and estate reform
Iowa Farm Bureau urges changes to Iowa inheritance tax and federal estate tax laws. Glen Taylor cites outdated exemptions and inflation, seeking higher allowances for parent to child transfers, spouse to spouse transfers, and a shift to actual land value. Republicans in Congress back Burleson-Curtis reforms to raise exemptions and expand the marital deduction to ease taxes on surviving spouses. Estate planning and reforms are discussed with county leaders and congressmen, with action hoped within a year.
