Taxpayer Assistance and Service Act
The Senate considered the Taxpayer Assistance and Service Act, a bipartisan bill with more than 60 tax-related reforms aimed at improving taxpayer services. Senator Wyden, who supports the bill, said it would crack down on tax preparers who cheat low-income taxpayers, speed up refunds, improve customer service at the IRS, and make it easier for people to get help with filing. Senator Crapo asked that the Finance Committee be discharged and that the Senate proceed to the bill’s immediate consideration. Most of the other floor time sampled here went to unrelated matters, including senators’ remarks about a congressional trip to Ukraine, resolutions and bills on other subjects, and disputes over other unanimous consent requests.Written by AI from the debate.
