Tell Legislators Not to Increase Taxes on Small Businesses
In the 2017 federal tax-reform bill, small-business owners who operate S Corps or LLCs, meaning that they file their tax returns as individuals and incorporate business income into their overall income, received a 20% deduction on their first $315,000 on joint income. That break, represented savings of tens of thousands of dollars for many businesses.
De-coupling such a break from federal law would mean that the state, which typically allows businesses and individuals to pay state taxes based on the income they reported to the federal government, would have to add that 20% pass-through back onto the income for which they are taxed by Colorado. That in turn would produce higher tax revenues for the state by requiring higher payments from business owners.
Many of the smallest businesses in Colorado have been hammered hardest by restrictions under which they were closed for the better part of two months or forced to operate with limitations. Restaurants, for example, had to close their dining rooms and could only serve food to-go from March 17 until May 27.
If this legislation is passed small businesses, including REALTORS®, would pay higher taxes for the next 6 years.

New legislation being introduced in the last few days of legislative session sullies the hard work of crafting a budget that involves shared sacrifice for all industries as a result of Covid-19. In fact the new legislation would seek to harm the same small businesses who tried to get PPP loans from the federal government. 41,635 businesses received PPP loans, yet analysis shows that many of these were large businesses. Independent contractors, sole-proprietors, were told to wait - applications were not open to them yet, then the federal money ran out. In Colorado there are over 611,000 small businesses and many of them still have not received any financial support to allow them to keep their employees and prevent layoffs and furloughs. Over 1 Million Coloradans are employed by small businesses, please don't pursue legislation that will harm those same Coloradans Please vote no on the Tax Expenditures bill. This legislation is not right, and not fair to hardworking small businesses in Colorado.
