Senator Joni Ernst has introduced the Audit the IRS Act, which mandates annual assessments of IRS employees regarding their tax obligations. This legislation comes in light of a watchdog report highlighting that current and former IRS staff owed $46 million in taxes, with about 5% non-compliant. Ernst aims to enhance accountability in the IRS, suggesting that those with seriously delinquent tax debts be terminated and that hiring practices avoid individuals with unpaid taxes. The act reflects ongoing issues with tax compliance within the agency, contributing to a substantial gap in owed taxes.
Ernst's proposal aims to ensure IRS employees are compliant with tax laws, addressing a significant issue where many workers owed substantial amounts in taxes.
The Audit the IRS Act mandates an annual review of IRS staff tax obligations, firing those who fail to pay, emphasizing accountability within the agency.
