Report No. 82-156 Gov Major Acts of Congress And REPORT NO. 82-156 GOV MAJOR ACTS OF CONGRESS AND TREATIES APPROVED BY THE SENATE 1789-1980 Christopher Dell Stephen W. Stathis Analysts in American National Governent Government Division September 1982 CONmGHnItNA^l JK 1000 B RE filmH C SE HVICA^^ ABSTRACT During the nearly two centuries since the framing of the Constitution, more than 41,000 public bills have been approved by Congress, submitted to the President for his approval and become law. The seven hundred or so acts summarized in this compilation represent the major acts approved by Congress in its efforts to determine national policies to be carried out by the executive branch, to authorize appropriations to carry out these policies, and to fulfill its responsibility of assuring that such actions are being carried out in accordance with congressional intent. Also included are those treaties considered to be of similar importance. An extensive index allows each entry in this work to be located with relative ease. The authors wish to credit Daphine Lee, Larry Nunley, and Lenora Pruitt for the secretarial production of this report.

BIBLIOGRAPHY................................................. 215 IND X......... ............................................................ 218 INTRODUCTION On November 15, 1777, a year and a half after the Declaration of Independence was signed, the Continental Congress adopted the Articles of Confederation. Ratification of the Articles, the first effort by Americans to provide a written constitution for "the United States of America," was finally completed early in 1781. Under the Articles the States retained control over most essential governmental functions, and Congress-in which each State had an equal vote-was the sole organ of central government. In their attempt to avoid anything like the centralized system under which Great Britain had ruled her colonies, however, the colonists left their own government too weak to perform its necessary functions and duties. Almost from the outset, this loose confederation of thirteen States was beset with serious problems. These for the most part resulted from basic defects in the Articles themselves which failed to give Congress control over taxation and trade, made no provisions for a Federal executive or judiciary, and avoided any sanctions which would have made possible enforcement of its decisions. Even when the inadequacies of the Articles became glaringly apparent, unanimous consent for amendments was impossible to obtain. As a consequence the States found it necessary

  • A Brief Description of Federal Taxes
    A BRIEF DESCRIFTION OF FEDERAL TAXES ON CORPORATIONS SINCE i86i WMUAu A. SU. ND* The cost to the federal government of financing the Civil War created a need for increased revenue, and Congress in seeking new sources tapped theretofore un- touched corporate and individual profits. The Act of July x, x862, amending the Act of August 5, x86i, is the first law under which any federal income tax was collected and is considered to be largely the basis of our present system of income taxation. The tax acts of the Civil War period contained provisions imposing graduated taxes upon the gain, profits, or income of every person2 and providing that corporate profits, whether divided or not, should be taxed to the stockholders. Certain specified corporations, such as banks, insurance companies and transportation companies, were taxed at the rate of 5%, and their stockholders were not required to include in income their pro rata share of the profits. There were several tax acts during and following the War, but a description of the Act of 1864 will serve to show the general extent of the coiporate taxes of that period. The tax or "duty" was imposed upon all persons at the rate of 5% of the amount of gains, profits and income in excess of $6oo and not in excess of $5,000, 7Y2/ of the amount in excess of $5,ooo and not in excess of -$o,ooo, and io% of the amount in excess of $Sxooo.O This tax was continued through the year x87i, but in the last two years of its existence was reduced to 2/l% upon all income.

  • History of Agricultural Price-Support and Adjustment Programs, 1933-84
    legislation covered the 1953 and 1954 crops of basic commodities if the producers had not disapproved marketing quotas and also extended, through 1955, the requirement that the effective parity price for the basic commodities should be the parity price computed under the new or the old formula, whichever was higher. Extra-long staple cotton was made a basic commodity for price support purposes. TOWARD FLEXIBLE PRICE SUPPORTS At the end of the Korean War in 1953, the specter of surpluses once again dominated agricultural policymaking. The debate over levels of support (high and fixed versus a flexible scale) was renewed. The administration of Secretary Ezra Taft Benson increasingly favored flexible supports which would drop as supplies increased. Most Congressmen from agricultural districts, on the other hand, wanted to continue fixed supports. A growing number of agricultural economists moved from their near unanimous preference for flexible supports in the late 1940s to a belief that only strong production controls and high price supports could assure acceptable farm income in a period of growing productivity. For the immediate postwar period, USDA commodity programs continued much as before. Support levels for basic crops remained at 90 percent of parity for 1953 and 1954. Secretary Benson proclaimed marketing quotas for the 1954 wheat and cotton crops on June 1, 1953, and October 9, 1953, respectively. The major types of tobacco and peanuts continued under marketing quotas. Quotas were not imposed on corn but corn acreage allotments were reinstated in 1954 for the first time since before World War II (with the brief exception of 1950).

  • Mayo Clinic, a Minnesota Corporation
    United States Court of Appeals For the Eighth Circuit ___________________________ No. 19-3189 ___________________________ Mayo Clinic, a Minnesota Corporation lllllllllllllllllllllPlaintiff - Appellee v. United States of America lllllllllllllllllllllDefendant - Appellant ____________ Appeal from United States District Court for the District of Minnesota ____________ Submitted: October 20, 2020 Filed: May 13, 2021 ____________ Before SMITH, Chief Judge, LOKEN and GRUENDER, Circuit Judges. ____________ LOKEN, Circuit Judge. Mayo Clinic (“Mayo”), a Minnesota nonprofit corporation, oversees healthcare system subsidiaries and operates the Mayo Clinic College of Medicine and Science (“Mayo College”). Mayo is a tax-exempt organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC), 26 U.S.C. § 501(c)(3).1 After an audit in 2009, the Internal Revenue Service concluded that Mayo owed unrelated business income tax (“UBIT”) on certain investment income it received from the investment pool it manages for its subsidiaries. The IRS issued a Notice of Proposed Adjustment and reaffirmed its position in a 2013 Technical Advice Memorandum. At issue is $11,501,621 in UBIT for tax years 2003, 2005-2007, and 2010-2012. Mayo2 paid the tax and brought this refund action. The issue, briefly stated, is whether Mayo is a “qualified organization” exempted from paying UBIT on “unrelated debt-financed income” under IRC § 514(c)(9)(C)(i). Qualified organizations include “an organization described in section 170(b)(1)(A)(ii) . .” Section 170(b)(1)(A)(ii) describes “an educational organization which normally maintains a regular faculty and curriculum and normally has a regularly enrolled body of pupils or students in attendance at the place where its educational activities are regularly carried on.” The IRS denied Mayo the exemption because it is not an “educational organization” as defined in 26 C.F.R.

United States Tax Treaty Policy: An Overview* H. DAVID ROSENBLOOMt AND STANLEY I. LANGBEINt EDITOR'S NoTE: The following is a slightly revised transcriptof an April 29, 1980 statement by the then-International Tax Counsel of the Department of the Treasury before the Subcommittee on Oversight of the House Ways and Means Committee. Except for some minor stylistic changes and non-substantive abridgements, it conforms to the Department of the Treasury News release of April 29, 1980, which originally reported the testimony. In the view of the Journal, the discussion of tax treaty policy and provi- sions appearing in the statement - which has not received wide dissemination - merits its inclusion in this InternationalTax Is- sue. Permission to reprint the statements was secured from the authors.
