Municipal Bonds For America will be sending a letter to all House and Senate Leadership, House Ways & Means and Senate Finance Committee Members urging them to retain current law on municipal bonds as a part of their upcoming legislative debate.
The letter was intentionally drafted to be short and simply focuses on urging Members to oppose any efforts to limit or repeal the exemption.
The intent of the letter is not to get Members to focus on its content, but to get them to focus on who signed the letter from their state or district.
MBFA’s goal is to collect a minimum of 300 signatures for this letter.
We strongly encourage each of you and your organizations to immediately take the following action:
- Obtain sign-off from your parent organization to have your organization’s name affixed to the letter–and follow the instructions (below) to make that happen.
- Alert your organization’s individual members regarding the opportunity to join with other like-minded organizations in supporting municipal bonds. MBFA wants to include the signatures from as many airports, hospitals, education entities, transportation authorities, mayors, broker/dealers, construction companies, and all others as signatures to this letter.
- To view and add your signature to the letter please click here.
The deadline for affixing your signature to this letter is Thursday, January 19, 2017.
