Original Note:
This statement is false and misrepresents a Treasury Dept report that estimated how many employees could be hired with more funding. Most new hires would be replacements for workers retiring from existing positions. Audit rates for those making less than $400k will not rise. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/irs-87000-new-agents/ https://www.cnbc.com/2022/08/31/irs-is-not-hiring-an-army-of-auditors-whats-really-happening.html
