SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) A vibrant and growing small business sector is critical 
        to the recovery of the economy of the United States.
            (2) Small businesses represent 99.7 percent of all employer 
        firms and generate approximately two-thirds of net new jobs.
            (3) Broadening the tax base and lowering statutory rates 
        through comprehensive tax reform is preferable to short term 
        tax rate extensions.
            (4) There is no consensus on Congressional passage and 
        implementation of such reform at this time; it is therefore 
        critical that tax relief for small businesses promulgated in 
        the Small Business Jobs Act of 2010 be extended.
