El restaurante empleaba a treinta y dos personas (diecis\u00e9is a tiempo completo y diecis\u00e9is a tiempo parcial), y los Killion hab\u00edan pasado la mayor parte de su vida trabajando all\u00ed. Billy hab\u00eda comenzado a trabajar en Sizzler en 1986 como lavaplatos y Laura en 1987 como encargada de una barra de ensaladas. Comenzaron a salir y se casaron un a\u00f1o despu\u00e9s, luego compraron el restaurante para s\u00ed mismos en 1997. La mayor\u00eda de sus empleados han estado en el restaurante durante muchos a\u00f1os, algunos desde el principio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Billy se puso en contacto con Jeff Merkley para obtener ayuda con el Servicio de Impuestos Internos (IRS). El restaurante hab\u00eda atravesado momentos econ\u00f3micos muy dif\u00edciles entre 2003 y 2005 y hab\u00eda acumulado una deuda tributaria considerable. Reconocieron la deuda, pero durante esos a\u00f1os dif\u00edciles, no tuvieron m\u00e1s remedio que retrasar el pago de algunos impuestos; la \u00fanica otra opci\u00f3n hubiera sido cerrar el negocio. Ahora estaban preparados para pagar las multas t\u00edpicas y los cargos por intereses. Adem\u00e1s, ten\u00edan una oferta de financiamiento adicional de un inversionista inmobiliario privado; solo necesitaban que el IRS emitiera una &quot;oferta de compromiso&quot; oficial con el monto de pago espec\u00edfico. Sin embargo, el IRS estaba demorando injustificadamente la acci\u00f3n, a pesar de los extensos esfuerzos de Killion para cumplir con las repetidas y onerosas solicitudes de informaci\u00f3n del IRS. La situaci\u00f3n se hab\u00eda prolongado durante un par de a\u00f1os y el restaurante se acercaba peligrosamente a la bancarrota. Sin esa inversi\u00f3n, el restaurante podr\u00eda haberse hundido y lo \u00fanico que se interpon\u00eda en el camino era el IRS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>El personal de Jeff se lanz\u00f3 al caso y elimin\u00f3 la burocracia, ayudando a los Killions y a su abogado fiscal a entregar toda la informaci\u00f3n final al IRS. Luego, convencieron al IRS para acelerar la preparaci\u00f3n de la &quot;oferta de compromiso&quot;. Esa oferta se estableci\u00f3 por completo y se acept\u00f3 aproximadamente un mes despu\u00e9s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Desde entonces, el negocio ha florecido. En agosto de 2012, incluso abandonaron la franquicia y reabrieron el restaurante con su propio nombre: Killion&#039;s Beef, Reef y Buffet (\u00a1actualmente con 4 estrellas en Yelp!). Este es un excelente ejemplo del compromiso del Senador Merkley de apoyar a los empresarios locales y ayudar a reducir los tr\u00e1mites burocr\u00e1ticos.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Billy and Laura Killion owned a Sizzler franchise in Ontario, Oregon.
