Former Congressman Peter Roskam, who leads BakerHostetler’s Federal Policy team, provides listeners with a front-row seat to the most important policy and political debates in Congress. In this episode of “The Cloakroom with Peter Roskam,” Peter interviews Congressman David Schweikert, a Republican from Arizona. Schweikert is a senior member of the tax-writing Ways and Means Committee.

Peter’s discussion with Schweikert focuses on the expiration in 2025 of key provisions of the Trump-era Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which would trigger more than $4 trillion in tax increases. They also discuss how extending the nation’s current $35 trillion national debt will affect renewing those expiring tax provisions. Finally, Peter and Schweikert talk about Republicans’ narrow House majority and the ongoing campaigns for Congress and the White House.
