The annual Laurence Neal Woodworth Lecture on Federal Tax Law and Policy again will be given in conjunction with ABA Tax Section May Meeting in Washington, D.C. In a break from tradition, this year’s lecture will consist of a panel discussion on The Role of Tax Policy in the Development of Tax Legislation: Larry Woodworth’s Era and Today among former Treasury and Congressional officials — including those who personally worked with Larry Woodworth – who will provide insights on the role of tax policy then and now in light of changes in the Congress and the Tax-Writing Committees; the Treasury Department and the role of the White House; and the Federal budget and the impact of deficits.
Panelists:
- Bill Archer
- Michael Graetz
- Mark McConaghy
- Pam Olson
- Lindy Paull
- Bob Shapiro
