SPARKS — The Nevada Farm Bureau Federation has joined the Coalition to Defeat the Margin Tax Initiative. The Coalition to Defeat the Margin Tax Initiative is a statewide coalition representing thousands of small and large employers, farmers, ranchers and other concerned Nevadans.
Nevada Farm Bureau policy strongly opposes a gross business tax. Under the Margin Tax Initiative, every business with total gross revenue exceeding $1 million per year would be subject to a new 2% Margin Tax. These businesses would be taxed regardless of whether any of their revenue is actual profit.
“Nevada Farm Bureau has joined this coalition because our member-developed grassroots policy opposes a gross business tax,” said Nevada Farm Bureau President Hank Combs. “The Margin Tax Initiative is a giant tax increase that would hurt all businesses in Nevada, especially farms and ranches.”
