Resistbot Petition: Fund the IRS now!

An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Fund the IRS now!

225 so far! Help us get to 250 signers!

I’m writing to say that it’s time to give the IRS the resources it needs to do two important jobs: effectively serve law-abiding taxpayers and stop tax cheating by billionaires and big corporations. The IRS warns that refunds will be delayed and taxpayer questions will go unanswered, as they struggle with their lowest workforce in over 40 years. Meanwhile, the U.S. lost $600 billion in revenue to tax evasion and noncompliance in 2019—most of those unpaid taxes were owed by the wealthy and corporations. The answer to both problems—poor customer service for working families and lax enforcement against the rich—is a bigger budget for the IRS. Congress must provide the $80 billion in the Build Back Better plan the IRS needs to do its job. Please. this is common sense, and it’s only fair. Thanks.
