    I’m wondering how many members of this group have worked on federal financial reporting as required by the CFO Act of 1990, the Government Management Reform Act (GMRA) of 1994, and other, related legislation (e.g., the Federal Financial Management Improvement Act of 1996).

    The New York State GFOA is conducting the following training event specifically designed for elected officials: The Financial Responsibilities of Elected Officials: What You Need to Know.

On IRC 3402(t), at a time when many government entities are reducing staff, forgoing salary increases for those remaining, and cutting other costs in order to match reductions in revenues; it is unreasonable for the Federal Government to impose arbitrary regulations.

    There are some issues that I see as hot ones for Finance Officers that impact operations and the systems that support those operations:
