Date Comparison - Expression for current month and year?

[onegurl]

I need to make a date comparison - basically issue date must be equal to or greater than MM/DD/YY where MM = current date, DD = "01", and YY = current year.

Is there a way to express the current month and current year using built in date functions or manipulating Date()?

Thanks for the help,
