Episode description
How about those midterm elections?
Now, some of you might already be thinking, “Don’t even go there. I came here for taxes, not politics!” Well, not to worry, dear listeners. This is indeed a show about taxes.
But here’s the thing: taxes and politics are joined at the hip right now, and there’s no getting around it.
For the past two years, Republicans have controlled both houses of Congress and the White House. That means it’s been relatively painless getting things like the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act signed into law, and so they have.
Now, we have a divided Congress again. Democrats won control of the House on Nov. 6, which means it’s not going to be quite so easy getting further tax reform laws passed.
So the timing couldn’t be better to talk with Cari Weston, the AICPA’s director of taxation. Cari is paying attention to this area in a way that few others do, so today, she shares some terrific insights into what all of this means for tax preparers, and for their clients.
