Business Activity Taxes: Understand the Impact to Your Business

Complimentary Webinar

The D.C. government is facing a $600 million budget deficit next year and some, including presumptive Mayor Janeese Lewis George, have proposed a new type of tax called a Business Activity Tax (or a “BAT”) to fill this deficit.

Join us for an expert discussion to learn more about BATs, how they impact construction and other local businesses, and what policymakers should consider before adopting this controversial tax.

Ben Young, Managing Director with Georgetown Public Affairs, will explain the proposed tax in this Lunch & Learn webinar by sharing:

• What is BAT?
• An overview of BATs in other states
• D.C. Fiscal Policy Institute's Proposal for BATs
• What BAT supporters aren't sharing
• How BATs can be detrimental to your business
• Steps for action against the tax

To register for this complimentary virtual program, ABC of Metro Washington members need to email Matt Teffeau, Director of Government Affairs, at [email protected]. A Zoom link will be sent prior to the webinar.
