Join D Squared Tax Strategies’ own Dawn Levy O’Donnell at the 2019 ABA May Taxation Section Meeting in Washginton, D.C., on May 9th, 2019 at 4:00PM, for a special panel discussion.

How the Sausage Gets Made: The Unintended Consequences of the 2017 Tax Act and the Outlook for Tax Legislation in 2018

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act was signed into law by President Trump on December 22, 2017. Originally intended as an amendment to various provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, the TCJA created a cannon of entirely new, and occasionally baffling, tax law for practitioners.

This panel, comprised of Washington, DC tax policy insiders, will focus on how tax legislation—like the TCJA and other legislation currently before Congress—evolves from K Street to conference to committee to Treasury and finally, to law.

Notably, the panel will provide insight into the current tax legislation making its way through Congress and the prospects for new tax law in 2018.
