Message From the Chair
It is my honor to serve as Chair of the Section on Taxation for the 2023-2024 fiscal year. As we all continue to return to many aspects of our pre-pandemic, in-person lives, the Section remains committed to providing its members with high-quality opportunities for professional growth, development, and engagement.
Throughout the year, the Section works through the Beyond the Beltway Committee to connect and bolster tax communities outside of the District of Columbia. We are planning in-person events in cities like Atlanta, Boston, Dallas, New York, and St. Louis. The Section also provides virtual and hybrid programming through its monthly Tax Practice & Procedure roundtables, quarterly substantive tax panel discussions, and other ad hoc panels discussing new tax guidance as it is released throughout the year. And our Women in Tax Committee, the Diversity and Inclusion Committee, the Young Tax Lawyer Committee are hosting very successful networking events in Washington, DC.
I have been and will continue to be excited to see our members around the country at Beyond the Beltway events; at local programming in Washington, DC; and at the Tax Law Conference in March and the Insurance Tax Seminar in June.
The Tax Law Conference and Insurance Tax Seminar are set to explore cutting edge tax topics and issues. I would like to thank in advance the planning committees, FBA staff, and all of our generous sponsors. None of this incredible programming could happen without you. I strongly encourage all of our members to join one of the Section’s many active committees such as the Women in Tax Committee, the Diversity and Inclusion Committee, the Young Tax Lawyer Committee, or the Health and Wellness Committee.
Thank you for supporting the Section on Taxation.
Alan S. Williams
