TL;DR Summary

A Texas federal court has issued a nationwide injunction against the enforcement of the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA), ruling it likely unconstitutional. The CTA required millions of U.S. companies to report beneficial ownership information to the Treasury's Financial Crimes Enforcement Network by January 1, 2025. The court found that the CTA overstepped congressional powers and threatened constitutional rights, thus companies are not required to comply with the reporting deadline. The decision is subject to appeal, potentially reaching the Supreme Court.
