Contributing sentiments towards policy:

59% : First, the bill would give money to the IRS, mostly for enforcement but also for customer service and IT modernization.
54% : Beefing up the IRS enables the agency to identify and collect tax bills already owed, and it encourages more voluntary compliance.
48% : Under current law, managers of private equity and other investment funds can pay taxes on some of their earnings at capital gains rates, rather than at the higher rates at which ordinary labor income is taxed.
41% : Under this bill, companies that report at least $1 billion in profits to shareholders must pay at least 15 percent of that amount in taxes (with some carveouts and other adjustments).
