A new Congressional Majority means that the focus of Congress will take a new direction during the 110th Congress. Among other changes taking place, the new Congress implemented Pay-as-You-Go rules, which require Congress to finance new tax initiatives. The new Majority is also likely to consider reforms to the Alternative Minimum Tax, renewal of the popular “tax extenders” bill, which included items such as the Research and Development Credit, deductibility of state and local taxes, the Work Opportunity Tax Credit as well as a number of education incentives.

Carmen Group works closely with our tax clients, combining innovative approaches to goals with a thorough understanding of tax policy and the legislative process. We are dedicated to finding solutions that work both for our clients and that make sense to Congress.
