To help businesses and former employees by giving the people The Civil Rights Tax Relief Act.

This legislation will help free up courts by making settlement offers more appealing plaintiffs and easier for defendants to offer a settlement. The tax burden placed on these lawsuits forces people to turn down settlements that could easily be accepted otherwise.
