Podcasts about Tax reform

In this episode of the Sunlight Tax Podcast, I'm diving into the One Big Beautiful Act, a major tax law that passed this summer. I found a great, nonpartisan article from the Brookings Institution and the Tax Policy Center, and with the authors' permission. It's called “When Tax Laws Defy Public Opinion: What OBBBA Reveals.” The piece lays out the short-term wins of this law, but also the long-term effects on things like healthcare and our social safety net. What really struck me is the gap between what people want and what lawmakers actually do, and how much wealth drives those decisions. For me, the big lesson is that we need to frame fiscal issues in ways that connect with the public, and ultimately, push for campaign finance reform to get legislation that reflects real public priorities. Also mentioned in this episode: 01:05 Introduction to the One Big Beautiful Bill Act 02:34 The Societal Impact of the Tax Bill 04:44 Public Opinion vs. Legislative Action 07:29 Disparities in Wealth and Policy Preferences 10:31 The Importance of Campaign Finance Reform   If you enjoyed this episode, please rate, review and share it!

Tune in here to this Tuesday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! We’re joined by Grover Norquist from Americans for Tax Reform to talk about the looming government shutdown and the deeper political dynamics unfolding in Washington. Norquist breaks down the current state of play, highlighting the Republican-led House’s push for a two-month continuing resolution to maintain flat spending levels, while Senate Democrats appear poised to block it in pursuit of major increases in spending. He explains how this political standoff may impact federal funding, especially if Democrats refuse to cooperate without adding $1.5 trillion in new expenditures. Norquist also critiques Democratic leadership for what he sees as a willingness to shut down the government for political leverage. He compares the moment to a chaotic scene from Animal House, where futile actions are embraced. For more on these budget battles and fiscal policy, Norquist encourages listeners to visit ATR.org and follow him on Twitter at @GroverNorquist. It's a fast-moving story with high stakes in D.C.

When President Donald Trump signed multi-trillion-dollar reconciliation legislation July 4, it included provisions to expand the low-income housing tax credit (LIHTC), make permanent the opportunity zones (OZ) incentive and new markets tax credit (NMTC) and sharply pare back clean energy tax incentives. On this week's episode of Tax Credit Tuesday, Michael Novogradac, CPA, discusses the bill's provisions with Peter Lawrence, Novogradac's chief public policy officer; Jason Watkins, CPA; and Tony Grappone, CPA. They begin by looking at how the legislation was passed in Congress, then dive into the specific provisions for the LIHTC, OZs and NMTCs before taking a deeper dive into how clean energy tax credits were cut back. They then look at some cross-cutting provisions that will affect community development tax credits and what provisions failed to make it into the final reconciliation bill.
