Legislation was recently enacted that reduces the maximum tax rate of non-corporate taxpayers for long-term capital gains generally from 20% to 15% for taxable years ending on or after May 6, 2003. This rate change is currently scheduled to sunset or revert back to the provisions of prior law effective for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2008, at which time the long-term capital gains tax rate will be increased to 20%.
