Americans do not want the IRS snooping around their finances. Plain and simple. I’m committed to protecting our citizens from overreaching big government. That’s why I’ve taken the following steps to ensure that your concerns are heard: • Cosponsored Rep. Drew Ferguson’s Prohibiting IRS Financial Surveillance Act, which blocks any proposals to increase IRS bank surveillance. • Cosponsored Ways & Means Top Republican Kevin Brady’s Bill which protects taxpayers by prohibiting the IRS from using any new funding to establish a new bank account information reporting regime. • Joined Rep. Kevin Brady’s letter to Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen expressing concern over proposed IRS surveillance of American’s bank accounts. • Joined Rep. Tom Emmer’s letter to Speaker Pelosi, Ways & Means Committee Chair Neal, Treasury Secretary Yellen, and IRS Commissioner Rettig expressing concern about the proposed increase on IRS collection of tax information. I will always fight for the American taxpayer. It’s important that the current leadership knows that Americans do not need or want big government monitoring their daily lives.
