A few recent articles reminded me it makes sense to warn our TMC team members about the pending tax increases which will take place next year. It is unclear if the Bush tax cuts will expire at this point but I believe it makes sense to prepare everybody for the worst. You may want to adapt this letter I sent to the TMC team for your company.

No one knows what will happen at this point but many of us should be prepared to see more taxes, fees, etc taken out of our checks this January.
If you are interested in learning more, here are two articles on the matter.
