Congress on hold with election on the horizon

The short congressional session before the home stretch of campaigning for the November 3 election focused on bipartisan negotiations over a next coronavirus package and extending government funding and other expiring programs beyond the close of the FY2020 fiscal year on September 30. Lawmakers are now mostly out of session aside from business related to a potential coronavirus deal and Senate Supreme Court nomination consideration. As a broader matter, policy outcomes on tax and other issues have come into greater focus. An updated article from Washington Council Ernst & Young LLP discusses what may be on the horizon.
