On June 27, 2009, TEI filed comments with the Republican and Democratic leaders of the House and Senate Finance Committees of the North Carolina General Assembly concerning North Carolina Senate Bill 202, which would expand the State's franchise tax to pass-through entities and implement a "throwback rule" for taxpayers selling tangible products from locations in North Carolina to States in which they have no income tax obligations.
TEI's comments were prepared under the aegis of its State and Local Tax Committee, whose chair is Cathleen Stevens. Committee member Jamie Fenwick contributed substantially to the development of the comments, which were coordinated by TEI Tax Counsel Daniel B. De Jong.
