The Tax Reform Act of 1986, P.L. 99-514, contains a number of provisions pertaining to education. Some of these provisions refer explicitly to schools, teachers, students, and so on, while several others without such direct references also are significant. This report provides a short summary of both kinds of provisions and an explanation, where necessary, of why they are relevant.
