The U.S. government has cited a number of issues, including various federal regulations having to do with such things as "standing" and "unlawful disclosure of a tax return", in its official response to Israel-based U.S. tax attorney Monte Silver's latest legal challenge to President Trump's Transition Tax regulations, according to a posting on the Silver & Co. website.

The American Citizens Abroad has written to seven top U.S. Treasury officials, including Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen and IRS Commissioner Charles Rettig, to urge it to "revisit" the way President Trump's 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is affecting the small- to medium-sized businesses owned by Americans overseas – in addition to urging them to take other actions, including "the true corrective measure" of switching the U.S. to a residence-based tax (RBT) regime.

More than a year after a U.S. District Court judge ruled that Tel Aviv-headquartered U.S. tax attorney Monte Silver could go ahead with his legal challenge to a key component of President Trump's December 2017 tax reform legislation, his right to bring the challenge is continuing to be the central issue in the case, it emerged earlier this week.

Monte Silver, the American tax attorney resident in Israel who in January 2019 filed a still-ongoing lawsuit that challenges the so-called Transition Tax element of President Trump's 2017 tax reform legislation, has filed another lawsuit, also in U.S. District Court in the District of Columbia, over another aspect of the same Trump bill.

The Republicans Overseas, “as well as several of its chapters”, have filed a "motion for a leave to file" amicus brief in a potentially precedent-setting legal challenge to a key element of President Trump’s 2017 tax reform legislation, being brought in Washington, D.C. by Israel-based U.S. tax attorney Monte Silver.

Weeks after a U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C. ruled in his favor by denying a U.S. government effort to prevent him from legally challenging a key component of President Trump's December 2017 tax reform legislation, Tel Aviv-headquartered U.S. tax attorney Monte Silver has unveiled plans to undertake a  global road trip, to "meet all those who have supported the cause".
