Global Tax Mess Awaits U.S. Companies, and Congress Isn't Helping
U.S.-based multinational companies will start paying higher taxes in foreign countries next year under a global minimum-tax agreement. The following year, the deal will cause U.S. companies to lose domestic tax breaks. In 2026, U.S. taxes on companies’ foreign income will rise because of long-delayed provisions of the 2017 tax law. Despite U.S. officials negotiating in 2021 for a way to limit corporate tax avoidance, Congress is deadlocked over what to do and this will ignite consequences for American companies.
