Economic Policy
The U.S. Chamber's Economic and Tax Policy Division focuses its work on advancing policies that create jobs and foster economic growth.
Our division is committed to pro-growth tax policies that preserve America's global competitiveness and is opposed to tax increases that reduce businesses' ability to grow, invest, and create jobs. We believe a successful economy depends on a tax code that rewards achievement, encourages investment, and promotes growth. Below you will find links to our policy objectives and accomplishments, Hill communications, and more.
A Pro-Growth Agenda
The U.S. Chamber believes America needs a national priority for growth, driven by people through innovation and productivity and fostered through sound public policy. That's why we are outlining policies that will help us reach the goal of 3% annual real economic growth.
