Marc Gerson, Chair of Miller & Chevalier and former Majority Tax Counsel to the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Ways and Means, commented on Special Assistant to the President for Tax and Retirement Policy Shahira Knight's involvement in tax reform. Gerson noted that Ms. Knight has been available to meet with outside groups throughout the tax reform planning process, frequently discussing the administration's tax goals and delving into detailed elements of tax policy. "People need to be well-prepared," said Gerson, who worked with Knight on the Committee on Ways & Means. "She asks insightful questions, and she wants follow-up."
