The US Senate passed their version of the Fiscal Year Budget 2018, an important step that leads to reconciliation of the budget this coming week by the House and Senate.
Following the budget reconciliation, allowing a majority vote for tax reform, US tax reform is now on the horizon for potential enactment by year-end 2017.
To the extent potential US tax reform has been on the backstage, or ignored by pessimists, this latest step should be a strong indication that everyone needs to understand the Framework, albeit brief, previously announced and advocated by President Trump.
Attention is now in the details, with significant tax and business consequences for the US and the world.
EY’s Global Tax Alert provides additional details on this latest development.
