NTEU Supports National Taxpayer Advocate’s Call for Adequate IRS Budget

An adequately funded IRS is key to providing taxpayers the professional customer service they deserve, according to congressional testimony Friday from the National Taxpayer Advocate. NTEU agrees with National Taxpayer Advocate Nina Olson that taxpayers deserve timely, accurate and professional assistance when they contact the agency, and funding cuts over the years have hindered that service. “Simply put, the IRS cannot function well in the 21st century with the budget it has today,” states Olson’s report to Congress.
