Legislation almost forced Tax Offices to pay
Special Interest groups led by Impact Alabama sought to pass a new licensing act that would have directly allowed them to use portions of the licensing fees to grow they're own Federally Funded VITA Tax Preparation Offices.
Special interest sought to gain fees from tax industry

One special interest group in Alabama attempted to write their own legislation.  If not for NITPA the special interest would have controlled the entire industry and been able to use proceeds from the licensing fees paid by private tax businesses to help them grown their own federally funded tax operations.  NITPA successfully defeated the Senate Bill in the house ending one of the most fraudulent industry attacks in modern day history.

 Alabama Tax Preparers Bill SB 201 NITPA proposed admendments 
Tuesday, 26 May 2009

The National Independent Tax Preparers Association (NITPA) defeated a Special Interest Group in Alabama from passing its Senate Bill 201.  The Bill's intentions and language allowed for it to directly benefit the Special Group proposing the Bill and allowed the board members to be completely exempt from all rules, fees and sanctions they'd be proposing on Tax Preparers in Alabama. Tax Preparers in Alabama who supported NITPA were not completely opposed to industry enhancements but felt that the licensing board members shouldn't be exempt from the rules they would be imposing on the industry.  Senate Bill 201 was poorly drafted without industry insight.  NITPA members are uniting throughout Alabama and the U.S. to help create a standardized proposal for the industry.
