Some tax reform provisions might hurt universities, our country’s overall competitiveness

December 18, 2017/

By every relevant metric, America’s leading research universities remain the envy of the world, and are a significant part of what makes America great.

Surveys from Pew and Gallup have shown a growing skepticism among some Americans toward our nation’s institutions of higher learning. And congressional proposals to overhaul our tax code have targeted both degree-seeking students and our nation’s universities.

We continue to be deeply concerned about the effect some of these measures will have on American universities and as a result, on our country’s overall competitiveness.
