No tax increases on any business, including overseas jobs
Ayotte favors extension of all Bush tax cuts while Hodes says the tax cuts should end for those making more than $200,000 a year. "It's the wrong philosophy to raise taxes during these difficult, economic times and that's what he would like to do," Ayott
said of Hodes.Hodes said keeping tax cuts for the wealthiest would add $700 billion to the federal deficit.
Ayotte alluded to the comments from some NH economists who warned repealing tax cuts for the wealthy would cost individuals & small-business
owners in the state $300 million a year.
Hodes has proposed to end tax breaks for companies that ship jobs overseas, and he accused Ayotte of opposing them by signing a no-tax increase pledge from Americans for Tax Reform. "My opponent, she believes
that tax cuts for shipping jobs overseas will create jobs," Hodes said.
Ayotte said she's opposed to tax increases of any kind, "What congressman Hodes says is absolutely false," Ayotte declared. "What I have said is no tax increases on any business."

Reduce corporate tax rate; it's world's 2nd highest
Jump-starting the economy will also require lower taxes and a simplified tax code. We need to cut capital gains taxes and reduce tax rates for small business owners who file through the individual income tax code.
Small businesses should be able to claim tax deductions for making equipment investments. America's corporate tax rate is the second highest in the world--we need to cut it.

She understands the importance of small businesses to the New Hampshire economy and the direct impact fiscal decisions made in
