EY: 2024 US Election Impacts on State and Local Tax Policy

In this webcast, panelists discuss the election results from a state and local tax perspective and what they mean for business executives.

Following the November 5 US elections, federal policymakers will turn their attention to other pressing matters, including funding the federal government and contending with expiring Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) provisions. State governments and businesses alike will address the results of tax ballot initiatives and react to any new federal tax laws and policies.

In addition, some state legislatures may have to confront slowing state and local tax revenue collections.

Join our panel as we discuss the election results from a state and local tax perspective and what they mean for business executives. Topics will include:

• Notable 2024 federal, state and local election results
• Projected election impacts on federal tax provisions affecting state taxes:
  • TCJA provisions – addressing the so-called state and local tax deduction cap and its impact on state elective pass-through entity taxes; “bonus” depreciation; the IRC Section 163(j) interest limitation; and treatment of research and experimental expenditures under IRC Section 174
  • OECD BEPS 2.0 proposals
  • Campaign proposals, such as the income tax exemption for tips
• State and local election results and tax-related ballot measures
• State legislative policy considerations, including fiscal conditions
