Not later than December 15 of 1993, and each
subsequent calendar year, the Secretary shall
prescribe tables which shall apply in lieu of
the tables contained in subsections (a), (b), (c),
(d), and (e) with respect to taxable years be-
ginning in the succeeding calendar year.
(2) Method of prescribing tables
The table which under paragraph (1) is to

section (a), (b), (c), (d), or (e), as the case may
be, with respect to taxable years beginning in
any calendar year shall be prescribed—
(A) except as provided in paragraph (8), by
increasing the minimum and maximum dol-
lar amounts for each bracket for which a tax
is imposed under such table by the cost-of-
living adjustment for such calendar year, de-
termined—
(i) except as provided in clause (ii), by
substituting ‘‘1992’’ for ‘‘2016’’ in paragraph
(3)(A)(ii), and
(ii) in the case of adjustments to the dol-
lar amounts at which the 36 percent rate
bracket begins or at which the 39.6 percent

(B) by not changing the rate applicable to
any rate bracket as adjusted under subpara-

(3) Cost-of-living adjustment
For purposes of this subsection—

endar year, exceeds
(ii) the CPI for calendar year 2016, multi-
plied by the amount determined under sub-
paragraph (B).

is the amount obtained by dividing—
(i) the C-CPI-U for calendar year 2016, by
(ii) the CPI for calendar year 2016.
(C) Special rule for adjustments with a base
year after 2016
For purposes of any provision of this title
which provides for the substitution of a year
after 2016 for ‘‘2016’’ in subparagraph (A)(ii),

reau publishes the initial value of the
Chained Consumer Price Index for All Urban
Consumers for the month of August for the

first be used to eliminate the deficits in the adminis-
trative budgets and then to reduce the public debt. To
further the objective of obtaining balanced budgets in
the near future, Congress by this action, recognizes the
importance of taking all reasonable means to restrain
Government spending and urges the President to de-
clare his accord with this objective.’’

EX. ORD. NO. 14082. IMPLEMENTATION OF THE ENERGY AND
INFRASTRUCTURE PROVISIONS OF THE INFLATION REDUC-
TION ACT OF 2022
Ex. Ord. No. 14082, Sept. 12, 2022, 87 F.R. 56861, pro-
vided:
By the authority vested in me as President by the
Constitution and the laws of the United States of
America, and in order to effectively implement the his-
toric energy and infrastructure provisions in Public
Law 117–169, commonly referred to as the Inflation Re-
duction Act of 2022 (the ‘‘Act’’) [see Tables for classi-
fication], and to accelerate United States global leader-
ship in clean energy innovation, manufacturing, and
deployment in a way that cuts consumer energy costs,
creates well-paying union jobs and sustainable and eq-
uitable economic opportunity, advances environmental
justice, and addresses the climate crisis, it is hereby or-
dered as follows:
SECTION 1. Background. The Act is the single largest
and most ambitious investment in the ability of the
United States to advance clean energy, cut consumer
energy costs, confront the climate crisis, promote envi-
ronmental justice, and strengthen energy security,
among other vital provisions that will lower costs for
families, reduce the deficit, and grow and strengthen
the economy. The Act will:
(a) build on the once-in-a-generation investment in
the infrastructure and competitiveness of the United
States set forth in the Infrastructure Investment and
Jobs Act (Public Law 117–58) [see Tables for classifica-
tion] by accelerating the deployment of clean energy
technologies, making home energy efficiency and clean
energy installations more affordable, and incentivizing
the purchase of electric vehicles;
(b) boost energy security and lower energy costs for
families, businesses, and government;
(c) revitalize American manufacturing by investing
in domestic clean energy supply chains and creating
well-paying union jobs, including in traditional energy
communities;
(d) improve public health and advance environmental
justice and economic opportunity for frontline commu-
nities who disproportionately bear the brunt of cumu-
lative exposure to industrial and energy pollution;
(e) promote climate justice by reducing harmful
greenhouse gas emissions in line with the goal of real-
izing net-zero emissions by no later than 2050;
(f) harness nature-based solutions—including cli-
mate-smart agriculture and forestry—that deliver eco-
nomic benefits for rural communities, Tribes, farmers,
ranchers, and forest landowners;
(g) expand research and accelerate innovation in the
development of clean energy, climate, and related tech-
nologies; and
(h) increase the resilience of our communities in the
face of a changing climate.
Achieving these goals will require effective implemen-
tation of the Act by my Administration, as well as by
State, local, Tribal, and territorial governments.
SEC. 2. Implementation Priorities. In implementing the
Act, all agencies (as described in section 3502(1) of title
44, United States Code, except for the agencies de-
scribed in section 3502(5) of title 44) shall, as appro-
priate and to the extent consistent with law, prioritize:
(a) investing public dollars effectively and efficiently,
working to avoid waste, and achieving measurable, de-
monstrable outcomes for the American people;
(b) driving progress to achieve the climate goals of
the United States to reduce greenhouse gas emissions
50–52 percent below 2005 levels in 2030, achieve a carbon
pollution-free electricity sector by 2035, and achieve
net-zero emissions by no later than 2050;
(c) advancing environmental and climate justice
through an all-of-government approach, including
through the Justice40 Initiative set forth in Executive
Order 14008 of January 27, 2021 (Tackling the Climate
Crisis at Home and Abroad) [42 U.S.C. 4321 note], to pro-
tect and improve the health and well-being of fence-
line and frontline communities in the United States;
(d) promoting construction of clean energy genera-
tion, storage, and transmission, and enabling tech-
nologies through efficient, effective mechanisms that
incorporate community engagement;
(e) increasing the competitiveness of the United
States economy and investment in critical supply
chains, including through the Act’s incentives and
measures to strengthen domestic manufacturing and
supply chains;
(f) increasing high-quality job opportunities for
American workers and improving equitable access to
these jobs, including in traditional energy commu-
nities, through the timely implementation of the Act’s
requirements for prevailing wages and registered ap-
prenticeships and by focusing on high labor standards
and the free and fair chance to join a union;
(g) reducing energy costs for working families, busi-
nesses, and governments at all levels while increasing
energy security for the benefit of United States eco-
nomic competitiveness and national security;
(h) accelerating innovation by directing the scientific
and technical expertise of America’s researchers, busi-
nesses, and workers toward achieving breakthroughs in
clean energy and climate technologies; and
(i) effectively coordinating with State, local, Tribal,
and territorial governments, as well as with private-
sector stakeholders and nongovernmental organiza-
tions, in implementing the critical investments out-
lined in this section to build sustainable, resilient com-
munities.
SEC. 3. White House Office on Clean Energy Innovation
and Implementation. There is hereby established the
White House Office on Clean Energy Innovation and
Implementation within the Executive Office of the
President, which shall coordinate the policymaking
process with respect to implementing the energy and
infrastructure provisions of the Act and other essential
initiatives. The White House Office on Clean Energy In-
novation and Implementation shall have a staff headed
by the Senior Advisor for Clean Energy Innovation and
Implementation; shall have such staff and other assist-

§ 2. Definitions and special rules
(a) Definition of surviving spouse
(1) In general

two taxable years immediately preceding
the taxable year, and
(B) who maintains as his home a household
which constitutes for the taxable year the
principal place of abode (as a member of
such household) of a dependent (i) who
(within the meaning of section 152, deter-
mined without regard to subsections (b)(1),
(b)(2), and (d)(1)(B) thereof) is a son, stepson,
daughter, or stepdaughter of the taxpayer,
and (ii) with respect to whom the taxpayer is
entitled to a deduction for the taxable year
under section 151.
For purposes of this paragraph, an individual
shall be considered as maintaining a house-
hold only if over half of the cost of maintain-
ing the household during the taxable year is
furnished by such individual.
(2) Limitations
Notwithstanding paragraph (1), for purposes
of section 1 a taxpayer shall not be considered
to be a surviving spouse—
(A) if the taxpayer has remarried at any
time before the close of the taxable year, or
(B) unless, for the taxpayer’s taxable year
during which his spouse died, a joint return
could have been made under the provisions
of section 6013 (without regard to subsection
(a)(3) thereof).
(3) Special rule where deceased spouse was in
missing status
If an individual was in a missing status
(within the meaning of section 6013(f)(3)) as a
result of service in a combat zone (as deter-
mined for purposes of section 112) and if such
individual remains in such status until the
date referred to in subparagraph (A) or (B),
then, for purposes of paragraph (1)(A), the date
on which such individual died shall be treated
as the earlier of the date determined under
subparagraph (A) or the date determined
under subparagraph (B):
(A) the date on which the determination is
made under section 556 of title 37 of the
United States Code or under section 5566 of
title 5 of such Code (whichever is applicable)
that such individual died while in such miss-
ing status, or
(B) except in the case of the combat zone
designated for purposes of the Vietnam con-
flict, the date which is 2 years after the date
designated under section 112 as the date of
termination of combatant activities in that
zone.
(b) Definition of head of household

For purposes of this subtitle, an individual
shall be considered a head of a household if,
and only if, such individual is not married at
the close of his taxable year, is not a surviving
spouse (as defined in subsection (a)), and ei-
ther—
(A) maintains as his home a household
which constitutes for more than one-half of
such taxable year the principal place of
abode, as a member of such household, of—
(i) a qualifying child of the individual (as
defined in section 152(c), determined with-
out regard to section 152(e)), but not if
such child—
(I) is married at the close of the tax-
payer’s taxable year, and
(II) is not a dependent of such indi-
vidual by reason of section 152(b)(2) or
152(b)(3), or both, or
(ii) any other person who is a dependent
of the taxpayer, if the taxpayer is entitled
to a deduction for the taxable year for
such person under section 151, or
(B) maintains a household which con-
stitutes for such taxable year the principal
place of abode of the father or mother of the
taxpayer, if the taxpayer is entitled to a de-
duction for the taxable year for such father
or mother under section 151.
For purposes of this paragraph, an individual
shall be considered as maintaining a house-
hold only if over half of the cost of maintain-
ing the household during the taxable year is
furnished by such individual.

For purposes of this subsection—
(A) an individual who is legally separated
from his spouse under a decree of divorce or
of separate maintenance shall not be consid-
ered as married;

married at the close of his taxable year if at
any time during the taxable year his spouse

ried at the close of his taxable year if his
spouse (other than a spouse described in sub-
paragraph (B)) died during the taxable year.

policy
(a) Benefit plans as affecting interstate com-
merce and the Federal taxing power
The Congress finds that the growth in size,
scope, and numbers of employee benefit plans in
recent years has been rapid and substantial;
that the operational scope and economic impact
of such plans is increasingly interstate; that the
continued well-being and security of millions of
employees and their dependents are directly af-
fected by these plans; that they are affected
with a national public interest; that they have
become an important factor affecting the sta-
bility of employment and the successful devel-
opment of industrial relations; that they have
become an important factor in commerce be-
cause of the interstate character of their activi-
ties, and of the activities of their participants,
and the employers, employee organizations, and
other entities by which they are established or
maintained; that a large volume of the activi-
ties of such plans are carried on by means of the
mails and instrumentalities of interstate com-
merce; that owing to the lack of employee infor-
mation and adequate safeguards concerning
their operation, it is desirable in the interests of
employees and their beneficiaries, and to pro-
vide for the general welfare and the free flow of
commerce, that disclosure be made and safe-
guards be provided with respect to the establish-
ment, operation, and administration of such
plans; that they substantially affect the reve-
nues of the United States because they are af-
forded preferential Federal tax treatment; that
despite the enormous growth in such plans many
employees with long years of employment are
losing anticipated retirement benefits owing to
