Bill overview
This bill aims to improve tax collection by requiring the IRS to project the ‘tax gap’ – the difference between taxes owed and taxes actually collected. It also establishes a fellowship program to recruit experienced tax professionals from the private sector to join the IRS and form an audit task force. The bill includes restrictions on IRS funding for certain enforcement activities and seeks to enhance the efficiency of the IRS through data analysis and a revised audit selection process.
