“The Taxpayer Advocate Report provides a good outline for addressing tax issues important to the American people, including the AMT, which should be reformed as part of an overhaul of our tax code. We applaud the Taxpayer Advocate for identifying the pressing need for Congress to deal with the serious problems facing American taxpayers.  Solving these problems will require tough choices, but we will work together in a bipartisan way to do just that.” 

The IRS Taxpayer Advocate, an independent body within the IRS, is responsible for assisting taxpayers in their dealings with the IRS and advising the tax writing committees in Congress of areas where our tax laws can be improved.
