It's not too late.

Over the past year, the IRS created some new tax initiatives to mitigate the impacts of COVID-19, and from the perspective of the business, ERC looks to be the most lucrative.
 
This incentive ended September 30th, 2021, but is still available for the majority of U.S. businesses to claim for a limited time

Did you know, you could be eligible for $21k - $26k per W2 employee that were on your payroll throughout 2020 and 2021 - this is regardless if a PPP loan was used.

Opinion: Social Media is Overrun by Cancel Culture - The Liberty Champion
Has cancel culture gone to far?  It is affecting our small business?

Are we allowing an angry mob to decide a person's or business's fate?   are we stifling free speech and preventing some from voicing opinions out of fear they will be personally attacked.

Are both side right?

We will have a good conversation, together, on what is being done and what can be done to protect everyone from situations where
"Cancel culture can include everything from people with the most money and privilege in our society getting push back for saying things others found distasteful to regular everyday people losing their jobs for relatively minor infractions."

Those that have participated in these conversations,since 2019, know we have respectful conversations to get people together to help moving forward.  Come join us for this call,.

We will have in person and virtual participation.
