U.S. Rep. Tom Rice (R-SC) on April 7 sponsored legislation combining numerous bills aimed at reforming operations at the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).
“Before giving the IRS a dime of new funding, they must begin serving the best interest of American taxpayers,” Rep. Rice said last week. “The legislation I introduced today, alongside Senator Braun, reforms the IRS and ensures they will act in good faith and accountability to the taxpayers who fund them.”
The Simplify, Don’t Amplify the IRS Act, H.R. 7485, which Rep. Rice introduced in his chamber as a companion bill to the same-named S. 4046, sponsored on April 7 by U.S. Sen. Mike Braun (R-IN), would combine multiple bills introduced by Sen. Braun to reform the IRS.
According to the congressional record bill summaries, the newly proposed legislation contains reforms from the following bills:
“The IRS was intended to serve as a non-partisan organization to collect America’s taxes,” said Rep. Rice. “President Biden supports regressive tax policies that weaponize the agency to target hard-working taxpayers and conservative organizations.”
Further, according to Rep. Rice, “the current administration champions overreaching reporting requirements that have potential to harm main street banks and taxpayers everywhere.”
