As of August 2021, because Capitol Hill has yet to agree on funding, the timeline is still anyone’s guess.
In the Green Book, which is the White House’s policy wish list, their goal is to increase long-term Capital Gains significantly. Even though we can’t speak to the timeline yet, tax increases are top of mind for most business owners due to the proposed increases.
