“MMAC’s advocacy is helping us innovate and move the company forward, just as it does for other manufacturers across the state.We recently completed work on our near-$2 million Research and Development Technical Center. MMAC’s support for the state’s R&D tax credit spurs investment in cutting-edge technologies with a significant portion of expenses offset. This not only fuels our growth but also solidifies Wisconsin’s reputation as a hub for manufacturing excellence.” |

Protecting the manufacturing tax creditOne of the MMAC’s legislative priorities is protecting Wisconsin’s Manufacturing and Agricultures Activities Credit – which allows business to keep income derived from manufacturing tax free. Losing this credit would force many to look elsewhere.
We will continue to fight for this credit. |
Establishing the R&D tax creditInnovation is key in keeping your business as a leader in the market. In 2023, MMAC pushed for increasing the state’s research and development tax credit. Starting this year, that credit increased from 15 percent to 25 percent.
