An increase in income tax rate means you'll pay a higher percentage of your income to the government. This directly reduces your disposable income, the money you have left after taxes for spending or saving. This can make it harder to afford basic necessities, save for retirement, or invest in your future.

On July 3, 2024, United States District Court Judge Ada Brown ruled against the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and issued a preliminary injunction postponing the implementation of the agency’s controversial rule banning noncompete clauses. The decision, in Ryan vs. Federal Trade Commission, is incredibly narrow, only applying to the named parties in the lawsuit. The injunction will stand as the Texas-based court considers the remainder of the casewith a final decision expected on or before Aug. 30, 2024. The prospect of a nationwide injunction or a vacatur of the rule is not out of the conversation and could still issue with the final decision.
