Marc Gerson was quoted in Tax Notes regarding the role of presidential leadership in organizing tax reform efforts as shown in the results of the 10th Annual Miller & Chevalier and National Foreign Trade Council (NFTC) Tax Policy Forecast Survey. Respondents cited the current political landscape as an impediment to tax reform happening in the near term. "There is a view that Congress has tried, but it's not a priority for the [Obama] administration," Gerson said. Adding that the next president will have an important role in leading future efforts, "the new administration would be a game changer to the dynamics of tax reform and its prospects for enactment," he said.
