The 118th Congress is considering several tax reform proposals. Down the road, presidential candidates may propose tax reforms, and Congress will extend or allow to expire provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. When Congress considers tax changes, tax expenditures usually come into play. In recent years, policymakers have battled over the state and local tax deduction, energy tax incentives, capital expensing, and many other tax provisions.

Which tax expenditures are justified? How are official tax expenditure lists flawed? Have recent tax changes increased or decreased tax expenditures? What reforms are needed for a simpler and flatter tax system?

Please join us at noon on Tuesday, July 25, in the Rayburn House Office Building, Room 2060, as our panel of experts discuss tax expenditures, tax reform, and what’s next on Washington’s tax agenda.

Lunch will be provided
