Keiter’s managing partner featured in Industry Today article

Gary Wallace, managing partner, shared insights on Congress’ struggles to pass informed tax legislation regarding research and development for the manufacturing industry in the Industry Today article titled “U.S. Manufacturing Hurt By Congress’ Inaction”.
