The Big Winners in OB3

For the Main Street business community, the benefits of the One Big Beautiful Bill (OB3) are clear – the bill kept our tax rates low, made permanent the 20-percent small business deduction, and retained full deductions for the state and local taxes we pay on our pass-through business income.

Cumulatively, these provisions will save pass-through business owners more than $100 billion a year. That’s real money they can invest right now in new equipment, new workers, and higher wages.

The case for family tax relief in OB3 is just as strong. As we’ve noted, provisions benefitting middle-income families – including the …

Australian CbC Reporting and S-Corps, Continued

The S Corporation Association today sent a letter to the Australian Tax Office (ATO) building on our ongoing discussions regarding how Australia’s proposed Country-by-Country (CbC) reporting rules could affect S corporations operating in the United States.

By way of background, Australia is in the process of implementing new CbC reporting requirements they say will provide greater transparency for multinational companies doing business in the country. These rules would apply to sizable companies doing business in Australia, including large S corporations.

Talking Taxes in a Truck Episode 44: The Shutdown Edition

Joe Lieber is a founder and co-managing partner of Capitol Policy Partners, a veteran DC insider and a longtime friend of the TTT podcast. With a government shutdown all but inevitable at this point, we asked Joe how long we can expect this fight to play out, whether a grand bargain is in the offing, and the implications of a prolonged funding lapse. Later we get into the prospects of a year-end tax package and whether businesses should or should not expect a second reconciliation bill (Too Big, Too Beautiful?).

Tax Cuts Don’t Sell Themselves

In Washington, passing major tax legislation is hard. Convincing Americans they actually benefited from it is often even harder.

That’s the central argument David Winston – founder of the polling and research firm The Winston Group and a longtime S-Corp ally – makes in a recent Roll Call op-ed, and it rings especially true for Main Street employers. Despite the significance of the One Big Beautiful Bill (now being referred to as the “Working Families Tax Cut”), public perception hasn’t quite caught up to reality. As David notes, tax cuts don’t often get the credit they deserve, and people may …
