Client Alert | less than 1 min read | 07.27.12
Following bipartisan passage (414-2) in the House on July 18, the Senate on Wednesday passed the Sequestration Transparency Act of 2012 requiring OMB to prepare a report for Congress within 30 days identifying each account to be sequestered and the resulting reductions at the program, project, and activity level; itemizing all exempt accounts; and providing any other data and explanations necessary to enhance public understanding of the sequester. While the Administration initially opposed the Act, press reports now indicate that the President will likely sign the bill into law.

New Post Appeals Mediation Pilot Program
On October 1, 2025, the IRS Independent Office of Appeals launched a two-year pilot program to make Post Appeals Mediation (PAM) more attractive and accessible to taxpayers. See IRS Announcement 2025-10. The new PAM pilot program offers taxpayers the opportunity to be assigned to a new Appeals team, which is otherwise unconnected to the underlying case, who will represent the original Appeals team in the mediation session. The assignment of the new Appeals team does not begin a new appeals process but rather is intended to help facilitate an expedited and impartial look at the underlying case with the goal of further exploring all potential paths to resolution prior to litigation.
