From: A constituent in Beaverton, OR

congress Congress must protect the de minimus tax exemption. De minimis tax exemption provides essential access to affordable goods to Americans, particularly to folks who may not have easy access to brick and mortar retail options. Removing de minimis would result in a tax hike on the American families who are struggling most with inflation. Removing de minimus would slow the flow of goods through already-congested ports and create more enforcement challenges instead of solving them. Protect this essential policy that keeps goods affordable for vulnerable citizens and small businesses.
