Section 112020 of the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” (OBBBA), House version, would expand the reach of the IRC § 4960 excise tax on compensation in excess of $1 million (equal to 21%, the corporate tax rate) paid to employees of an applicable tax-exempt organization (ATEO), removing the current cap that limits application to the five highest-compensated employees of the tax-exempt entity. The revised rule would instead apply to any current or former employee receiving compensation above the threshold, effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2025.
