Headlines are swirling in Washington D.C. on a bipartisan infrastructure deal in the U.S. Senate and a $3.5 trillion budget reconciliation deal between Senate Democrats. Host Damien Martin cuts through the static of the latest tax-related developments with guest Travis Lucas, managing principal of The Lucas Law Firm, and also checks in with BKD partners Chris Doolittle and Randy Throener to hear how taxpayers are reacting and planning amid uncertainty.

  • How are taxpayers approaching planning with so much unknown at this point? [02:58]
  • Is the upcoming 2022 election playing a role in the current negotiations? [10:13]
  • What areas are colliding in Washington right now [12:18]
  • Why is it important to count the votes and what's budget reconciliation again? [14:45]
