CPAs Meet with Congressman in Traverse City

 
 
 
 
On January 16, 2009, Michigan CPAs from the 4th Congressional District enjoyed the opportunity to meet their U.S. Representative at the “CPAs for Congressman Dave Camp” lunch reception hosted at the Park Place Hotel in Traverse City. Congressman Camp, a loyal friend to the CPA profession over the years, has supported policies that have been endorsed by the AICPA. Most recently, Congressman Camp co-sponsored legislation in the U.S. House of Representatives seeking to equalize taxpayer and tax preparer reporting standards by reducing the tax preparer standard from “More Likely Than Not” back to a “Realistic Possibility of Success.”

Traverse City-area CPAs also enjoyed the opportunity to network with colleagues, as well as converse with the Congressman in an intimate lunch setting. Congressman Camp indicated he was pleased to have the chance to show his appreciation to small business owners who drive the local economy of the 4th district, and the “financial experts desperately needed to help Michigan thrive again.” He shared his hope that CPAs statewide understand how important their role will be over the coming months and years as the nation works through tough economic times.
