The MSCPA's government affairs program provides our members with a strong, unified voice on Beacon Hill. As part of the MSCPA's legislative efforts, we maintain a Political Action Committee (PAC) to support pro-business legislators.

Over the years, the MSCPA has had a very successful legislative program starting with the passage of a three-year statue of limitations on CPA liability in the late 1980s and the defeat of the sales tax on services in 1991. Throughout the 1990s, we successfully defeated attempts to create a third class of licensee called a "Registered Accountant" or "Public Accounting Practitioner." In addition, we were successful with tort reform and defeated a number of attempts to repeal the reforms in the 2000s.

Currently the Society is focused on passing mobility legislation. We are also involved in public charity legislation, corporate tax law changes, and amendments to the Independent Contractor Law. All of these issues impact the profession.

The PAC is an essential aspect of our Government Affairs Program and used to support legislators working for economic growth in Massachusetts. Any amount contributed to the PAC helps our efforts.
