“Authorizing the NTA to file amicus briefs independently.”

What has happened

  1. Not started

    The National Taxpayer Advocate has no independent amicus authority. Section 7803(c) is unchanged, no bill in the 119th Congress would grant it, and the Advocate's public filings continue to be the Annual Report to Congress and the Purple Book rather than court briefs.

    No action found yet. This entry is the starting point, not a finding.
