Rep. Lloyd Smucker, a U.S. Congressman representing Pennsylvania's 11th district, has recently expressed his views on economic policies affecting small businesses and agriculture in Pennsylvania through a series of tweets. The posts highlight the significance of Section 199A and the Main Street Tax Certainty Act for local businesses.
On January 29, 2025, Rep. Smucker shared that "More than 85% of businesses in PA are small businesses, including most small and medium sized manufacturers[...] Reaffirming Section 199A will allow these businesses to reinvest in their employees and operations to better meet the needs of their customers." This statement was attributed to @PAManufacturers, emphasizing the importance of tax provisions for business growth.
In another tweet from the same day, he cited support from local organizations: “the Lancaster Chamber strongly supports the Main Street Tax Certainty Act” – @Lanc_Chamber. Additionally, he highlighted concerns from farmers as voiced by @PAFarmBureau: “Many have said their farm simply cannot afford to return to a tax code without Section 199A because with record high input costs and decreasing profit margins.”
