Assembly Resolution No. 47

BY: M. of A. Magnarelli

MEMORIALIZING Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim
January 22-28, 2023, as Enrolled Agent Week in the
State of New York

WHEREAS, It is the sense of this Legislative Body to memorialize
Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim January 22-28, 2023, as Enrolled Agent
Week in the State of New York; and

WHEREAS, The Enrolled Agent profession dates back to 1884 when,
after questionable claims had been presented for Civil War losses,
Congress acted to regulate persons who represented citizens in their
dealings with the U.S. Treasury Department; and

WHEREAS, The Enrolled Agents have been important assets to both the
New York taxpayers and the New York State Department of Taxation and
Finance; and

WHEREAS, Enrolled Agents assist taxpayers with a variety of federal
and state taxation issues from the annual filing of their tax return to
more complex issues of audits, liens, levies, appeals and collections;
and

WHEREAS, This Legislative Body particularly wishes to recognize
Enrolled Agents for their knowledge, professionalism, and integrity;
this professionalism and expertise makes Enrolled Agents "America's Tax
Experts"; now, therefore, be it

RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
memorialize Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim January 22-28, 2023, as
Enrolled Agents Week in the State of New York; and be it further

RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be
transmitted to The Honorable Kathy Hochul, Governor of the State of New
York.
