‘Big Beautiful’ tax bill gets Senate review as family businesses anticipate tariff impact
By Pat Soldano | Family Business Magazine

 

As the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” winds through Congress, family-owned businesses are watching closely. The bill includes proposed extensions to the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, offering big potential wins for pass-through entities and estates, including:

  • Raising the estate tax exemption to $15M (individual) / $30M (married)
  • Increasing the pass-through deduction from 20% to 23%
  • Restoring full R&D expensing for five years
  • Raising the SALT cap to $40,000

Pat also reports on the latest Family Business Caucus meeting, where business leaders shared their charitable impact and made the case for stronger support of the family enterprise model.
