Income Tax [Abstract]  
Income Taxes INCOME TAXES
Our effective tax rates were 10.6% and 4.6% in the three months and 13.1% and 18.5% in the six months 2021 and 2020. The change in the effective income tax rate for the three months was primarily due to pre-tax losses and a change in geographic profit mix recorded in 2020 and certain discrete tax items recorded in 2021. The effective income tax rates for the six months 2021 and 2020 reflect the continued lower effective income tax rates as a result of our European operations.
In March 2021 the American Rescue Plan Act (the Act) was signed into law in the United States. We do not expect the provisions of the Act to have a material impact on our annual effective tax rate or Consolidated Financial Statements in 2021.
