How Retailers Can Prepare For Tax Reform Under The Trump Administration
On Friday, January 20, 2017, Donald Trump will officially take the oath of office.

If it does happen, the belief is that most provisions, including many contained in the House Republican tax reform ‘Blueprint’ (released June 24, 2016), would take effect January 1, 2018. Although further details will be necessary, there are steps that retailers can – and should – take now to better understand how proposed tax reform provisions may impact their businesses.
