The Tax Foundation, a group that has grown to play a significant role in D.C. tax debates, is hunting for a new president and CEO after more than two decades of leadership under Scott Hodge.
The group, a nonpartisan organization that generally favors lower taxes, announced this week that Hodge was stepping aside after 22 years. It is now searching for a replacement and soliciting resumes. Whoever replaces Hodge follows a president and CEO who has molded the group into one with outsize influence over U.S. tax policy.
“We relied on their analysis a lot in developing our tax reform policies and, ultimately, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act,” the Texas congressman said, noting that the group was key in providing not only the direct effects of the plan but also the dynamic effects. Some of the steps that were taken to grow the organization's influence included creating a team focused on state tax policy, building a tax modeling program at the federal level, and assembling an international group aimed at global tax policy. He said another key priority was expanding the group’s fundraising and marketing capabilities, especially in the early days of the internet, to build up the Tax Foundation’s infrastructure and resources.
