The first day of the 2020 PLANSPONSOR HSA Conference featured a detailed panel discussion about the rules and regulations impacting the provision and operation of health savings accounts (HSAs).
Speakers on the digital panel included Katie Bjornstad Amin, a principal with Groom Law Group, and J. Kevin McKechnie, founder and executive director of the HSA Council at the American Bankers Association. The pair took time to dive into the heart of HSA regulations and did not shy away from the highly technical aspects of HSA management and optimization .
Quite a lot has been going on:

Accounting & tax: The global and local complexities holding multinationals to account |
Drivers of complexity for the top five most complex accounting and tax jurisdictions are frequent, and rapidly enforced changes in legislation can often lack clarity and be challenging to understand.

East Texas Ag News: Agricultural businesses should consider special tax regulations and allowances
ANGELINA COUNTY, Texas (KLTV) -It happened again this week. A couple had inherited some rural land and they wanted to keep it, perhaps turn it into an agricultural business.

How Taxes Could Change After the Election

President Trump wins reelection, the Senate stays under Republican control, and the House remains under Democratic control. Under this scenario major changes to the tax code or to tax regulations may be limited, but proposals will be made on both sides of the aisle that could gain traction so will bear watching. House Democrats would be expected to continue to push the party's tax agenda, including claw backs of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA), i.e.
