A little over years ago, the Trump-appointed head of the IRS told us that the annual gap between taxes due and taxes paid in the US is almost $1 trillion per year, caused by chronic underfunded of the IRS. Do you think that is a problem?
We did, which was why we provided funding to the IRS in the #InflationReductionAct to help them do their job. Not only to collect taxes due but also to be able to promptly respond to taxpayer concerns. Not a single Republican voted for that bill. BUT...
...Yesterday the @HouseGOP voted to #DefundTheIRS, taking all that funding back. Fortunately, it won't pass the Senate but let's be very clear: this would serve only to increase the deficit (because less $ comes in), encourage tax cheats and annoy tax payers.
