In these first few weeks of a Republican controlled House, we’ve seen
where Republican priorities lie: with their ultra-wealthy donors and
multinational corporations.

A quick recap: Last year, Congress passed a bill into law that boosted IRS
funding, allowing the IRS to go after wealthy tax-cheats and enabling it
to provide better customer service to taxpayers.

Why this was necessary: The IRS was defunded by Republicans in 2010,
allowing more wealthy tax cheats to go without audits, and empowering
corporations to cheat. With 50,000 IRS workers set to retire soon, we need
to get new personnel trained and ready to simply keep the IRS running. 

Now, House Republicans passed a bill that would rescind this funding. The
only winners here would be big corporations who evade taxes. When
corporations avoid taxes, working people are left to pick up the slack,
and this bill would add $114 billion to the deficit over ten years. 

I was proud to oppose this bill. While it passed in the House, it won’t
become law any time soon thanks to our Senate majority and President
Biden. But this is a clear example of who Republicans fight for when they
have power. [ [link removed] ]Show your support for a fully funded IRS by signing our
