What this bill does
AI plain-language summaryThis bill would let the National Taxpayer Advocate, who heads an office that helps people with IRS problems, hire its own lawyers who report directly to them instead of being under the Treasury Department's legal team. It would also give the National Taxpayer Advocate more control over hiring and managing all employees in the Taxpayer Advocate Service, not just the local advocates in each state. Right now, lawyers who give legal advice within the Treasury Department are generally supervised by Treasury's top lawyer, and this bill would create an exception for the Taxpayer Advocate's office.
