91µÎµÎ

The 91µÎµÎ has been concerned about provisions that would allow the taxing of graduate student tuition waivers, the elimination of the individual mandates for health care, and a number of additional provisions that have the possibility of impacting 91µÎµÎ as a not-for-profit business.

The result of this week’s special election in Alabama for a Senate seat set off furious deal-making in the tax reform conference committee. Details are being released today. So far, we know that the House-passed provisions that would eliminate the student loan interest deduction and would tax tuition waivers will NOT be included in the final bill. We consider this a win for 91µÎµÎ and for its graduate student members.

The 91µÎµÎ Government Affairs team offers more detailed information on the tax bill on the 91µÎµÎ Government Affairs blog.
