ADMIN LAW AND THE CRISIS OF TAX ADMINISTRATION |
101 North Carolina Law Review 1645 (September, 2023) |
The IRS is struggling. Phone calls from confused taxpayers ring unanswered, paper returns pile up, aggressive tax filers are confident they are unlikely to be audited. Congress piles new responsibilities on the agency while (so far) maintaining its budget at close to modern lows. This is a strange time, then, to launch perhaps the largest-ever... |

AWARDING RACIAL SEGREGATION: THE LOW-INCOME HOUSING TAX CREDIT AS A NEW RACIALLY RESTRICTIVE COVENANT |
70 UCLA Law Review 596 (August, 2023) |
The United States has a history of racial segregation in its facilitation of federal housing programs. One such program, the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC), was intended to respond to the need for affordable housing since its establishment in 1986. Through the LIHTC program, the federal government grants tax credits to investors and... |

BANKRUPTCY OVERLOAD |
57 Georgia Law Review 1133 (Spring, 2023) |
The bankruptcy system is overloaded. Those who use it, whether debtors or non-debtors, frequently seek to extract more out of a bankruptcy than the process can, practically and legally, provide. The goals and boundaries of bankruptcy law have always been subject to debate, making the system particularly susceptible to taking on more than it can... |

BARRIERS TO RACIAL WEALTH EQUALITY |
48 Human Rights 2 (2023) |
In the United States, racial wealth inequality, particularly the Black-white wealth gap, is massive. In 2019, the median wealth for white households was $188,200, compared to $24,100 and $36,100 for Black and Hispanic households, respectively (Bhutta et al., 2020). To better understand the ongoing persistence of this racial wealth inequality, we... |

BENEATH THE PROPERTY TAXES FINANCING EDUCATION |
123 Columbia Law Review 1325 (June, 2023) |
Many states turn in sizable part to local property taxes to finance public education. Political and academic discourse on the extent to which these taxes should serve in this role largely centers on second-order issues, such as the vices and virtues of local control, the availability of mechanisms to redistribute property tax revenues across school... |

BILLIONAIRE TAXES AND THE CONSTITUTION |
58 Georgia Law Review 249 (Fall, 2023) |
The United States now has ten times as many billionaires as it had just a few decades ago. This ever-growing class has sparked congressional interest in billionaire tax proposals. These proposals would generally require that billionaires recognize income when their asset values increase, even if they have not sold their assets. Under existing... |

98 New York University Law Review 331 (April, 2023) |
This Note describes how the tax system treats inmates, an intersection that has been relatively understudied by both tax and criminal justice scholars. The Note provides a detailed account of how inmates earn income through prison labor (what goes in) and the benefits denied to inmates (what comes out, or rather what often does not come out).

COMBATING THE RACIAL WEALTH GAP: A GOVERNMENT AND CORPORATE-CENTRIC APPROACH |
19 University of Saint Thomas Law Journal 180 (Spring, 2023) |
This paper calls attention to the ever-present racial wealth gap in America and illuminates how capitalism, despite its ardent proponents, continues to exacerbate that gap. On its face, the supposed free market that drives America's capitalistic society is race-neutral. An ever-changing shift of supply and demand drives the market. Although... |

This Note explores the relationship between contractual parties in the credit market, as shaped by debt capitalism, through a brief history of slavery, peonage, and credit/debt legislation.

98 Tulane Law Review 1 (November, 2023) |
In 2022, Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization overturned both Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey thereby giving the states carte blanche to do as they wish regarding abortion access.

In late 2018, a jury in Missouri awarded twenty-two plaintiffs $4.69 billion after they allegedly developed ovarian cancer from Johnson's Baby Powder. While the judgment was eventually reduced to $2.24 billion, the result only emboldened more claimants--over 40,000 of whom had sued Johnson & Johnson (J&J) as of August 2022. To address these... |

FAKE NEWS AND THE TAX LAW |

The public misunderstands many aspects of the tax system. For example, people frequently misunderstand how marginal tax rates work, misperceive their own average tax rates, and believe they benefit from tax deductions for which they are ineligible. Such confusion is understandable given the complexity of our tax laws. Unfortunately, research... |

INTERNATIONAL TAX REFORM: WHO GETS A SEAT AT THE TABLE? |
44 University of Pennsylvania Journal of International Law 1007 (Summer, 2023) |
The international tax framework relies on early-twentieth-century principles and favors the interests of the Global North, which created it. It bases taxing rights on a corporation's physical presence and mostly allocates profits to the country of residence. Moreover, it has been slow to adapt to modern business practices. In the digital economy,... |

Courts have long struggled to bridge the access-to-justice gap associated with in-person hearings, which makes the recent adoption of online legal proceedings potentially beneficial.

Taxpayers who take advantage of the Code's exclusions, deductions, and preferential rates implicitly vote on the shape of American society. Pre-TCJA, the Code enfranchised aspirational taxpayers who sought to own homes in flourishing neighborhoods, to educate their offspring, and to retire comfortably. The TCJA disenfranchised such taxpayers... |

POWER TO THE PEOPLE: HOW WORKERS CAN FIGHT TAX INEQUITY |

One of the most glaring problems facing workers today is tax inequity.

The wealthy's income has vastly risen over the past few decades, while workers have fared much worse by comparison. While tax policy alone... |
