Government Relations Activities identifies the following hot topic legislative issues:
- Section 3701 of H.R. 3970: Tax Reduction and Reform Act of 2007
- H. Con. Res. 333: Expressing continued support for employee stock ownership plans
- Co-Sponsors Added to The ESOP Promotion and Improvement Act of 2007 (S. 1322)
It also encourages everyone in the ESOP community to talk to their members of Congress:
It's an election year, and we realize you might well be sick and tired of us talking about this, but we are going to say it one more time – get out there and talk to your members of Congress!
We need an army of employee owners to interact continuously with elected officials to prove that pro-active positions for employee ownership and ESOP laws will improve America's economy in a way that is fair to all wage earners.
Many leaders are cynical when it comes to employee ownership through ESOPs. We need to show them what it really means to be employee owned and what they can do for a company.
