Breaking down the Build Back Better Act with the Global Business Alliance

In this episode of the SALT Shaker Podcast policy series, host and Eversheds Sutherland Partner Nikki Dobay welcomes back guest Meredith Beeson, Director of State Government Affairs with the Global Business Alliance (GBA). Her colleague Alan Pasetsky, Tax Policy Consultant with GBA, also joins the conversation.   Together, they delve into the corporate provisions included in the Build Back Better Act as passed by the House on November 19. In particular, they focus on the various changes proposed to 163—specifically changes to subsection (j) and the inclusion of a new subsection, (n). Alan and Meredith then discuss GBA's position on these changes and the implications of these changes at the state level. Finally, they wrap up their policy discussion with thoughts on the changes to GILTI. This week, Nikki's surprise nontax question is very timely – do you like the traditional Thanksgiving meal?
