What happened

Texas Congressman Roger Williams, chairman of the House Small Business Committee, said in the interview, as he stated it, that Republicans need to remind voters what has been done: tax cuts made permanent, regulations on banks cut for small businesses, 100 percent expensing, and, as he stated it, the inheritance tax threshold for family farming raised from $15 million to $30 million. He said, as he stated it, that 100 percent expensing lets businesses buy equipment and write it off immediately, and that community banks can again make the payroll and keep-open loans that regulation had made uneconomical, as he stated it.

Williams predicted, as he stated it, that the first quarter would be fantastic, with larger tax refunds putting cash flow into the system, and he cited, as stated in the interview, an OnDeck Financing cash flow trend finding that 94 percent of small business owners project growth. Asked about small business worries, he said, as he stated it, that the main worry is more government being inserted into the private sector, and he pointed to unrest in Minneapolis, as he characterized it, as the kind of disorder small business owners do not want in their hometowns.

Why it matters

The chairman of the Small Business Committee is a key congressional translator of the tax law to Main Street; his account of expensing, bank lending, and the estate threshold is how the administration’s allies are selling the law to small business owners.
