While everyone appears distracted with many tasks during January 2024, our government is busy proposing new tax bills. It is important for our tax professional community to take a close look at what is happening as the US taxpayer never seems to come out ahead with ongoing proposed new tax legislation and a 33 BILLION dollar US debt. Therefore, we ask the tax experts in our tax community to identify and figure out who is making out with tax savings and who are the taxpayers feeling a tax increase. TaxConnections welcomes your commentary below.
