Digest Key
Bill Text
WHEREAS, The enrolled agent profession was created in 1884 at the end of after the Civil War to represent citizens before the United States Department of the Treasury. Since that time, it has evolved with the creation of the federal income tax system into what we all are accustomed to today; and
WHEREAS, In 1972, a group of enrolled agents formed the founding chapter of an organization dedicated to enrolled agents in the City of Los Angeles. Within one year, it was the largest organization of enrolled agents in the country and was the basis for what would later become the National Association of Enrolled Agents. Five years later, the California Society of Enrolled Agents was formed; and
WHEREAS, Enrolled agents have been at the forefront of effective tax administration by working together with both federal and California tax agencies to help taxpayers comply with the tax codes. Enrolled agents assist taxpayers and any type of business entity with the annual compliance filing of their tax return to more complex issues of audit, liens, levy, appeals, and collections. Enrolled agents have been an important asset to both the California taxpayers and to California’s tax agencies; and
WHEREAS, Their knowledge, professionalism, and integrity make the enrolled agent “America’s Tax Expert.” Enrolled agents deserve to be recognized for the efforts they have put forth since 1883 1884 in serving the taxpayers of California; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the Assembly of the State of California, That the Legislature of the State of California hereby recognizes February 15, 2023, as Enrolled Agents’ Day to commemorate the contributions of professional enrolled agents for over 50 years to California taxpayers; and be it further
Resolved, That the Chief Clerk of the Assembly transmit copies of this resolution to the author for appropriate distribution.
