Based in Washington, DC, the Joint Committee on Taxation is a nonpartisan entity within the United States Congress, created under the Revenue Act of 1926. It draws on a professional staff of economists, attorneys, and accountants to provide impartial analysis and guidance on tax legislation for Members of both parties in both chambers. By interpreting complex tax policy and offering technical insights, the committee informs the legislative process as proposed measures move through Congress. Its primary customers are Members of Congress, with the work situated in the government administration space as a small, specialized office. A notable recent development is the March 2022 release of a Bluebook that catalogs tax legislation enacted in the 116th Congress.
