“Tax Reform,” or How We Got to Where We Are and Where to Go From Here
In his presentation, Brad will discuss the President’s and Congress’ most recent foray into tax reform. After a brief discussion on how (budget rules and reconciliation and other political pressure points), the session will turn to the what, with an emphasis on how Congressional rules and procedure shaped the ultimate “reform” package. The remainder of the session will focus on planning techniques in light of the new rules, if they have in fact been enacted, with an emphasis on estate and gift tax planning techniques.
