It’s been a hectic few months in Washington, and this week was no exception. With that in mind, here is a bonus episode featuring PRG’s resident tax expert Liam Donovan on the latest in tax reform and what’s up next for the Conference Committee, final vote, and beyond. Tune in for a look behind the scenes and lots of seasonal analogies.

Josh snags a few minutes with PRG’s resident tax expert Liam Donovan for a quick, cursory discussion of the House’s freshly released tax bill, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Josh and Liam cover the highlights of the bill, predictions on votes and potential controversy, next steps in the House, and what’s coming up in the Senate.

Josh and Liam revisit the Friday Five format for this week’s episode, discussing tax reform and yesterday’s budget adoption by the House, the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and talk of US renegotiations and/or withdrawal, Congressional retirements and Senators Corker and Flake, the state of the GOP, and the outlook for Midterm elections.

Welcome to October! Tax reform is the name of the game in Washington right now, so today Josh sits down with new PRG team member and tax policy expert Liam Donovan to break down the process, budget challenges, the latest updates, and his projections for the future.
