Book excerpt: The Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2003 (JGTRRA; P.L. 10827) accelerated the implementation of certain tax reductions that were originally enacted as part of the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 (EGTRRA; P.L. 107-16). The 2003 act reduced marginal income tax rates effective through 2010 and reduced taxes on dividend and capital gains income effective through the end of 2008. Several of these provisions will expire at the end of 2004, including the increase in the child tax credit, the expansion of the 10% tax bracket, the expansion of the 15% tax bracket and standard deduction for joint returns, the increase in the alternative minimum tax (AMT) exemption, and the tax incentives for business. During this session, Congress faces the issue of whether to extend or make permanent these expiring tax provisions. Extending these expiring provisions would be costly, reducing revenue by around $634 billion over the FY2005 through FY2010 time period. On April 28, 2004, the House approved H.R. 4181, legislation making the JGTRRA marriage tax relief provisions permanent. On May 5, the House approved H.R. 4427, legislation extending for one year the JGTRRA increase in the AMT exemption. On May 13, the House passed H.R. 4275, legislation permanently extending the JGTRRA increase in the 10% tax bracket. During the week of May 17, the House is scheduled to consider H.R. 4539, legislation that would permanently extend the increase, to $1,000, in the child tax credit. This report will be updated as legislative action warrants and new revenue data become available.

Download or read book Crs Report for Congress written by David L. Brumbaugh and published by BiblioGov. This book was released on 2013-11 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A major tax cut was enacted in June 2001 as the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act (EGTRRA; P.L. 107-16; H.R. 1836). This report summarizes the provisions of the bill, analyzes effects, and considers the development of the legislation. To comply with Senate procedural rules, the Act included a "sunset" provision that rescinds its tax cuts at the end of calendar year 2010. During 2002, the House (but not the Senate) passed several bills making all or some of EGTRRA's tax cuts permanent. There are indications that Congress will return to this issue in 2003. In early 2001, tax cuts were a principal focus of policymakers. In February, President Bush sent Congress the outlines of a proposal to cut taxes by an estimated $1.6 trillion over 10 years; the proposal is based on a plan the President set forth during the 2000 presidential campaign. The principal elements of the plan were a cut in marginal individual income tax rates; a tax cut for many married couples; an increased child credit; elimination of the estate and gift tax; a permanent research and experimentation tax credit; a charitable contribution deduction for non-itemizers; and several tax benefits for health care and education. ...

Book excerpt: A major tax cut was enacted in June 2001 as the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act (EGTRRA; P.L. 107-16; H.R. 1836). This report summarizes the provisions of the bill, analyzes effects, and considers the development of the legislation. To comply with Senate procedural rules, the Act included a "sunset" provision that rescinds its tax cuts at the end of calendar year 2010. During 2002, the House (but not the Senate) passed several bills making all or some of EGTRRA's tax cuts permanent. There are indications that Congress will return to this issue in 2003. In early 2001, tax cuts were a principal focus of policymakers. In February, President Bush sent Congress the outlines of a proposal to cut taxes by an estimated $1.6 trillion over 10 years; the proposal is based on a plan the President set forth during the 2000 presidential campaign. The principal elements of the plan were a cut in marginal individual income tax rates; a tax cut for many married couples; an increased child credit; elimination of the estate and gift tax; a permanent research and experimentation tax credit; a charitable contribution deduction for non-itemizers; and several tax benefits for health care and education. In March, tax cuts similar to the President's proposal began moving through the House of Representatives. On March 8, the House approved H.R. 3, containing a cut in marginal tax rates; on March 29, the House approved H.R. 6, containing tax cuts for married couples and an increase in the child credit; and on April 4, the House approved H.R. 8, which would phase out the estate and gift tax. On May 2, the House approved H.R. 10, containing tax reductions related to pensions and retirement. On May 15, the Senate Finance Committee approved an omnibus bill including elements of all of these proposals, plus education tax benefits. The bill was reported as an amended version of H.R. 1836, the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 that was passed by the House on May 16; the bill was approved by the Senate with further amendments on May 23. The principal differences between the House, Senate, and Administration plans were a larger tax-rate cut in the President's and House plans than in the Senate bill; a retroactive component in the House and Senate bills designed to provide near-term economic stimulus; effective dates in the Senate bill that were generally somewhat later than those in the President's proposal and the House bills; pension provisions in the House and Senate plans, but not in the President's; and health provisions in the President's plan but generally not in the House or Senate proposals. On May 26, the House and Senate both approved a conference version of EGTRRA. The bill's reduction in marginal individual income tax rates is smaller than proposed by the House or the President and larger than proposed by the Senate, but is closer to the Senate bill than the other proposals. Beyond the rate cuts, the bill's major elements are: tax cuts for married couples, phase-out of the estate and gift tax, an increase in the child tax credit, more generous individual retirement account (IRA) and pension provisions, tax benefits for education, and a number of other items. President Bush signed the tax cut bill on June 7.

Book Estate and Gift Taxes

Download or read book Estate and Gift Taxes written by Jane Gravelle and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 (EGTRRA, P.L. 107-16) repeals the estate tax in 2010. During the phase-out period, the new law increases the exempt amount to $3.5 million by 2009 ($1.5 million in 2005), lowers the top rate to 45% by 2007 (the top rate in 2005 is 47%), and repeals the federal credit for state death taxes in 2005. The federal gift tax remains though the rate is reduced to the top personal income tax rate (35% in 2005). After repeal of the estate tax, carryover basis replaces step-up in basis for assets transferred at death. The legislation includes an exemption from carryover basis for capital gains of $1.3 million (and an additional $3 million for a surviving spouse). However, the estate tax provision in EGTRRA automatically sunsets December 31, 2010.

This book was released on 2002 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper summarizes and evaluates the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act. Enacted in 2001, EGTRRA is the biggest tax cut in 20 years, and features income tax rate cuts, new targeted incentives and estate tax repeal. Our central conclusions are that EGTRRA will reduce the size of the future economy, raise interest rates, make taxes more regressive, increase tax complexity, and prove fiscally unsustainable.
