H.R. 5349

TAS Act

Finance Committee, Ways and Means Committee · Rep. Nathaniel Moran (R-TX)

30 September 2026 | Passed Senate with amendment (unanimous consent)

What's next: Back to the House (amendments must match exactly)

Summary: The bill would expand the U.S. Tax Court's authority to issue subpoenas for documents and evidence outside of scheduled hearings, allow the court to extend filing deadlines when it's fair to do so, and authorize special trial judges to impose fines and jail time for contempt of court. It would also expand when special trial judges can be assigned to cases and establish rules requiring judges to recuse themselves in certain situations.
