“The 30th anniversary year of the R&D credit is bittersweet. In the mid-1980s, the U.S. R&D incentive was the best in the world.  Today, the U.S. credit  lags behind incentivesin many developed countries, has lapsed 14 times, and is set to expire again at the end of the year.  Leadership in global innovation requires smart action.  Let’s mark the 30th anniversary of the R&D credit with enactment of a strengthened, permanent incentive.”
