White House Threatens GOP With This
This is getting messy.
President Biden’s White House has just warned House Republicans that they will veto any bill that is passed that aims to defund $72 billion in funds from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).
Republicans vowed to strip the $72 billion that President Biden and the Democrats agreed to give them to hire thousands of new IRS agents to crack down on the middle class to generate more tax revenue.
According to Fox, In a new statement to House Republicans the White House said, “Far from protecting middle-class families or small businesses, H.R. 23 protects wealthy tax cheats at the expense of honest, middle-class taxpayers. With their first economic legislation of the new Congress, House Republicans are making clear that their top economic priority is to allow the rich and multi-billion dollar corporations to skip out on their taxes, while making life harder for ordinary, middle-class families that pay the taxes they owe. That’s their agenda; not lowering costs or cutting taxes for hardworking Americans – as President Biden has consistently advocated.”
Biden’s White House is claiming that the 87,000 new IRS agents they plan to hire will target wealthy Americans and not the middle class however a lot of Americans simply don’t believe them.
“If the President were presented with H.R. 23 – or any other bill that enables the wealthiest Americans and largest corporations to cheat on their taxes, while honest and hard-working Americans are left to pay the tab – he would veto it,” the White House added.
