Senate Version of Tax Cuts and Jobs Act: A Comparison With the House Version

On November 9, the Senate released its description of The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Like the House version that was released earlier, this bill proposes sweeping changes to the Internal Revenue Code that would dramatically impact individuals and corporations. The proponents of this bill indicate that it simplifies the tax code, cuts taxes for the "middle class," and brings our corporate tax structure in line with the rest of the modern world, thereby eliminating the incentive to keep company profits overseas. While there are many similarities between the House and Senate versions, there are some key differences as well.
