Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]  
Income Taxes Income Taxes
The Company recorded income tax benefit of $2.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to income tax expense of $10.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The Company's effective tax rate was 3% and 37% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act was enacted and signed into U.S. law in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and among other things, permits the carryback of certain net operating losses. As a result of the enacted legislation, the Company recognized a $5.2 million net tax expense during the six months ended June 30, 2020, which consists of a $12.3 million deferred tax expense and a $7.2 million current tax benefit. This impact, along with the rate impact from non-deductible goodwill impairment, was the primary driver for the difference between the statutory rate of 21% and the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2020.
The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2019 differed from the statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the mix of earnings between the United States and Puerto Rico.
