JERSEY CITY, N.J., Feb. 5, 2025 – The following statement is attributable to Jackson Hewitt CEO Greg Macfarlane: 

“The discussion draft of the Taxpayer Assistance and Service Act released by Senate Finance Committee Chairman Crapo and Ranking Member Wyden represents a significant step toward a fairer and more transparent tax ecosystem for all taxpayers. Numerous provisions of the bill reflect bipartisan, common-sense reforms that will streamline the taxpayer experience, promote communication between the IRS and taxpayers, protect taxpayers from bad actors, and ensure taxpayers get the best possible service when they seek assistance with preparing their tax returns.

“We applaud Senators Crapo and Wyden for their leadership on these critical issues, and we look forward to further dialogue with the senators, their staff, and other tax administration stakeholders to advance this important, common-sense legislation.”
