Original Note:
HR5376 allocates nearly $80 Billion for the IRS. The IRS is not mandated to spend all of the funds by 2031, or to hire a specific amount of employees. There is no language in the bill to arm IRS agents. The bill aims to meet the needs of a previously underfunded IRS. https://www.forbes.com/sites/taxnotes/2022/08/04/what-the-irs-funding-in-the-inflation-reduction-act-means-for-taxpayers/?sh=3ec21d2c374d https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-bill/5376/text
