Summary

The 2018 midterm election could be one of the most consequential in many years, with control of the House, Senate and two-thirds of all state governorships at stake. The outcome could drastically reshape key lawmaking bodies at all levels of government, leading to changes in policy and investment in key areas. Businesses are already watching these races closely and considering the implications for their own long-term strategy. Grant Thornton will hold two podcasts on the implications of this historic election. On this first, our speakers will discuss the potential election outcomes that businesses should consider, including the future of tax reform, the potential economic impact of Trump’s trade policy and expected legislative agendas for congressional Democrats and Republicans.
