Chellie Pingree on Tax Reform

Close corporate tax loopholes

"When our country's largest companies don't pay their fair share, it's the taxpayers, families and small businesses that get stuck with the bill," said Pingree. "Ending tax loopholes that allow big corporations to evade taxes by using an overseas P.O. Box is the right thing to do" Pingree said. Her plan would use Maine's law as a model, and would require more financial disclosure for corporations Source: Campaign website, www.PingreeForSenate.com, "Tax Loopholes" Sep 26, 2002
