Rep. Bilirakis Helps Job Creators, Repeals Burdensome 1099 Requirement

March 3, 2011

"Repealing this requirement is a victory for America's small businesses, families and individuals," Bilirakis said. "This 1099 provision hampers small businesses with red tape and is one of the most out of touch ideas to come out of Washington in a long time."

Bilirakis cosponsored HR 4, the Small Business Paperwork Mandate Elimination Act of 2011, in order to help eliminate this enormous burden that takes time, energy and resources away from businesses. The bill passed with a 314-112 vote.
