Pat Soldano welcomed Members to the call, which focused on opportunities and challenges for family businesses as well as the estate tax repeal/reduction efforts in the 117th Congress.

First, Frank Luntz (FILuntz, Inc) discussed the results of his new survey, which shows a deep divide within the GOP that needs to be addressed in order for the party to survive.

Next, former U.S. Senator Mark Pryor (D-AR) (Brownstein, Hyatt, Farber, Schreck) leveraged his experience in Congress to provide insight into what to expect with a new Congress and the Biden Administration now officially sworn in.

Finally, Russ Sullivan (Brownstein, Hyatt, Farber, Schreck) and Brandon Román (Squire Patton Boggs) discussed PATG’s strategic advocacy plan.

To conclude, Pat again thanked the FEUSA Members and reminded them of the need for continued engagement, including by responding to the 2021 FEUSA Family Business Survey that will be sent out in early February.
