Scott Hodge's Schedule
The outlook for tax policy in Washington is about as uncertain as it has been in years. Lawmakers face a “fiscal cliff” at the end of 2025 when most of the 2017 tax cuts expire. Failure to act will trigger a $3 trillion automatic tax hike, yet there is no clear indication of how Congress and the next administration will respond. Scott Hodge, author of the new book, Taxocracy: What You Don’t Know About Taxes and How They Rule Your Daily Life, will outline what you should prepare for, what the leading presidential candidates are saying, and how Washington can use the fiscal cliff as a catalyst for pro-growth tax reform.
