Mission
Family Enterprise USA Action engages with legislators on Capitol Hill on behalf of family offices, successful families, and family-owned businesses. It is focused exclusively on the critical tax and economic policies that impact them.
Since 1995, FEUSA Action has been the leading advocacy group working daily in Washington, D.C., to reduce and eliminate estate tax, gift tax, and generation skipping transfer tax while blocking increased income and capital gains taxes, the creation of a wealth tax, and other hostile policies that punish hardworking taxpayers and success in the U.S. It is a bipartisan 501.c4 organization.
For more than 25 years, Family Enterprise USA Action has effectively achieved many Legislative Accomplishments. Recent Wins include Blocking These Sweeping Historic Tax Increases:
- Increases in the Top Income Tax Rate
- Increases in Estate Tax Rate and Reduction in Lifetime Exemption
- Eliminating of Valuation of Discounts for Estate Tax Purposes

The Danger Still Lurks: How Washington May Raise Taxes & Punish Financial Success. Threats Still on the Table:
- Tax Proposals Don’t Die. They Are Deferred. Administration Takes Another Run at Tax Increases in FY 2024 budget
- President’s s Tax Regulatory Agenda – Using the power of his pen to achieve goals bypassing Congress. Treasury has the authority to change current regulations

Horror Stories
Current Legislation
Family Enterprise USA Action advocates in a Bipartisan manner to favorably influence legislation, both proactively introducing legislation and reactively blocking negative tax provisions in existing bills. This includes the repeal of estate tax, gift tax and generation-skipping transfer (GST) taxes, and against increased income and capital gain taxes, the creation of a wealth tax, and other taxes that significantly limit the ability of these businesses to remain family owned.
Impact
This form of double taxation at death has a destructive impact on families, family offices, successful individuals, job creation, and the national economy.
