Background
Key provisions from American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) and the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) have, or will expire, over the next twelve months.  A recent study from the USDA’s Economic Research Service estimated that the expiration of the temporary provisions of the ARPA and TCJA would increase farm households’ federal income tax liabilities by $8.9 billion and estate tax liabilities by $647 million the year following expiration.  Their analysis suggests that the combined effect of the sunsetting of reduced individual income tax rates, the increased standard deduction, a cap on state and local tax deductions, and the elimination of the personal exemptions would have the largest impact on farm households.
