More than 20,000 employees in the Tax Authority accept the Trump administration’s resignation offer
About 22,000 employees of the internal revenue service registered to obtain the latest resignation of the Trump administration, according to four people familiar with this issue, a migration process that may weaken the agency’s ability to collect taxes.
The Tax Authority had about 100,000 employees before President Trump took office. Nearly 5,000 employees have resigned since January, and 7,000 employees have been demobilized, although these extinguishers have been competed in court. If these hairstyles become in effect, the agency will be on the right path to lose about a third of the workforce this year.
Under the conditions for the delayed resignation of the Trump administration, employees who take the deal will be placed on a paid administrative leave until September and then left their federal jobs. Some employees who took the offer can still cancel the resignation.
It is expected that the loss of a third of the tax authority employees – with the remaining employees who are preparing for further demobilization and financing discounts – will reduce the amount of revenue that the federal government can collect. The current and former employees said that the cuts have already caused the abandonment of some audit operations, and taxpayers may feel more prepared to try to avoid paying taxes if the Tax Authority shrinks.
The Biden Administration has expanded the Tax Authority by about 20,000 employees in the hope of increasing the amount of tax revenues it collected. A Treasury spokesman said that the administration aims to reflect the administration from the last administration.
“The secretary is committed to ensuring efficiency with the provision of groups, privacy, and customer service that the American people deserve,” said Treasury Secretary Scott Bessin.
Among the resigned tax authority officials, Melanie Cross. She and other senior tax authority officials decided to leave the agency partially due to an agreement to exchange tax motivated information with the enforcement of immigration and customs. The Trump administration decision has caused the tax department’s data to help deport illegal immigrants who have uninteresting documents to the tax mosque, which has long been kept on the taxpayer of taxpayer information for a long time.
