Plain-English Summary

The Treasury Department would be required to regularly report on efforts to prevent tax fraud and identify ways to reduce unnecessary complexity in the tax code. These reports would help Congress and the public understand where tax fraud is occurring, what's being done to stop it, and which parts of tax law are most confusing or complicated. The goal is to make the tax system simpler and catch more people who aren't paying what they owe.
