NBAA Joins Other Groups in Urging U.S. Congress To Extend Bonus Depreciation

NBAA has joined other organizations in urging Congressional leaders to continue stimulating business capital expenditures by extending the accelerated, or “bonus,” depreciation that is set to expire at the end of this year. In a letter sent to both houses of Congress yesterday, the groups said, “It is imperative that we continue the 50-percent bonus depreciation…for 2013 and beyond. This will provide some certainty to U.S. businesses to allow them to continue to make capital investments, which in turn will create more jobs and help ward off a possible recession in 2013.”
