Council Member Justin Brannan inquires about the Independent Budget Office's (IBO) analysis of proposed federal tax changes, particularly regarding pass-through entity taxes (PTET).
- The proposed limitation on PTET would not impact city and state personal income tax collection but would raise federal tax liabilities for city residents who utilize PTET.
- IBO expresses concern about how this proposed limitation would change taxpayer behavior if passed.
- IBO has not yet conducted quantitative analysis on the potential impact on the city economy.
