This bill would provide the IRS with additional funding over six years, from 2026 to 2031. The money would go toward four areas: collecting unpaid taxes and conducting audits and criminal investigations, helping taxpayers understand their obligations, updating computer systems to better detect fraud, and modernizing core business software.
The IRS would carry out the new work, with a directed focus on high-income individuals and large corporations rather than ordinary wage earners. The IRS Commissioner would report to Congress every two years on progress, and the Treasury Inspector General would independently review those results.
If passed, the IRS would have more resources to pursue unpaid taxes and update aging technology systems. Audits and enforcement would be aimed more at high-income filers and large corporations under the bill's direction.
