Marc Gerson was quoted regarding the status of the Republicans' tax blueprint following Donald Trump's presidential election win. Gerson, a former tax counsel to the House Committee on Ways and Means, said the blueprint is likely to be the “starting document” for tax reform legislation. "With Trump’s win, there will be a greater sense of urgency to produce a bill based on the plan," Gerson said. "You could see tax reform really getting a jump-start at the beginning of the year."

Gerson's perspective on this topic was also included in The Hill article "Election Result Opens Door to Tax Reform" on November 10, 2016.
