Senators Wyden and Gregg To Discuss Simplifying the U.S. Tax System On the Day Before Tax Day

Bipartisan Policy Center Founder Tom Daschle to Moderate Discussion

Washington, D.C. - The Bipartisan Policy Center (BPC) will host a panel discussion, “Reforming Our Tax Code: A Bipartisan Solution,” with Senators Ron Wyden (D-OR) and Judd Gregg (R-NH) next Wednesday, April 14, 2010, the day before tax day.  Senators Wyden and Gregg will discuss their recently introduced legislation, “The Bipartisan Tax Fairness and Simplification Act of 2010.”  The discussion will be moderated by BPC Advisory Board Member and former Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle (D-SD).  
As the 2010 tax filing deadline approaches, Senators Wyden and Gregg will discuss their legislation, outlining their proposals for making the tax system fairer and easier for American workers and businesses to navigate.  The Wyden-Gregg bill serves as a reminder that bipartisan cooperation on critical issues still exists in Washington, with Democrats and Republicans working together to reform and simplify the tax code.  
 
A series presented by the BPC, Bridge-Builder Breakfasts highlight institutions and individuals who are reaching across political lines to solve critical challenges facing the country. At a time when partisan conflicts often attract the most attention, the BPC is committed to creating a forum for those who, despite differing views, are willing to collaborate in order to advance the common good.
