About the TIE Coalition:
The Tax Innovation Equity Coalition is a diverse group of U.S. companies and trade associations that supports comprehensive tax reform that modernizes the U.S. tax system to allow American businesses to compete in global markets in a manner that does not discriminate against any particular industry or type of income – including income from intangible property. To protect these vital economic drivers, we need to make sure the U.S. tax code treats all kinds of income equally and does not disadvantage revenue from intangible property. The TIE Coalition encourages Congress to: implement a competitive territorial tax system which does not double-tax income earned by U.S. multinational corporations overseas and lowers the U.S. corporate tax rate so it is competitive with those of other developed nations.
