Elder Oaks testifies before Senate committee, defends charitable deductions
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Elder Dallin H. Oaks told the U.S. Senate Finance Committee Tuesday morning that proposed "impairments" of the charitable tax deduction in order to increase tax revenues available for government expenditure are not religious, political or even economic issues. Rather, he said, they pose "a question about the nature and future of America." Ref. Source 1
