ASSET, short for Americans Standing for the Simplification of the Estate Tax, is a grass-roots non-profit organization focused on reforming how the estate tax is collected. Based in Kensington, Maryland, near Washington, D.C., the group emphasizes changing the current method to address concerns that the estate tax is inefficient and disproportionately affects private businesses and family farms. The organization pursues its goals by building a broad coalition of private businesses, farmers, ranchers, and their employees to advocate for tax reform on Capitol Hill. Its stated aim is to reduce the negative impact of the estate tax and to limit job losses associated with its current framework, positioning itself within the broader realm of U.S. tax policy advocacy. The entity operates as a small, volunteer-driven nonprofit, focusing on grass-roots mobilization to influence estate tax policy. A recent development note reflects ongoing activity in its advocacy effort, with continued work toward its reform objectives.
