If you look more carefully at the list you posted you'll see that almost everyone of those reports has to do with economic issue which are related directly or indirectly with taxes and/or government funding.
They are there to do the dirty work that congress has no stomach for (or background) and if you do not think the issues they "research" are not related to economic issue(read taxes and spending) then you're kidding yourself. How long do you think such a body would exist if it were not for the easy access to public funding that can be easily hidden under the present system?
The CRS, however, is not the issue nor the JCT, nor other groups hoping to perpetuate themselves with public funds. To say they are not biased on your part is certainly gilding the lily. Their very existence depends upon tax funding. The reports don't have to be about taxation to involve the very public funding they exist on.
The latest report I've seen from the CRS (April 5. 05) had to do with reforming charities and charitable giving. If you don't think that is tax connected in some fashion, think again.

Does the Fairtax repeal government funding of any programs?...I didn't think so.
