One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA):
The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), signed into law on July 4, 2025, introduced wide-ranging tax changes affecting nearly every U.S. taxpayer. As organizations move into 2026, understanding how these provisions impact payroll, charitable giving, partnership structures, and transaction planning remains a top priority.
Our coverage focused on translating legislative change into practical guidance that continues to inform compliance, strategic planning, and risk management in the year ahead.
