NFIB released two new reports regarding the 20% Small Business Tax Deduction, which is scheduled to expire at the end of next year. The reports illustrate what will happen to the small business economy if Congress fails to stop the massive tax hike. 

The Ernst & Young (EY) economic impact analysis, released in conjunction with NFIB, concluded that making the deduction permanent would create 1.2 million new jobs each year for the first ten years and 2.4 million annually every year thereafter. It would also result in a $750 billion GDP increase in the small business sector over the first ten years and an increase of $150 billion annually after that. Losing the 20% Small Business Deduction would wipe out these benefits for small businesses and the economy.  

The NFIB Tax Survey found that 59% of small business owners reported they would be negatively impacted should the 20% Small Business Deduction Expire.
