Democrats hire army of agents at IRS to squeeze honest taxpayers for Green New Deal

Democrats' mislabeled 'Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 offers higher taxes, more spending, higher prices, and an army of IRS agents.
Rather than working together on pro-growth and counter-inflationary policies, my Democratic colleagues broke with earlier commitments for unity and chose to double down on a partisan, tried-and-failed tax-and-spend strategy with doses of medical price controls that will crush innovation and drive shortages. The mislabeled "Inflation Reduction Act of 2022," which experts say does nothing to curb inflation, offers higher taxes, more spending, higher prices, and an army of Internal Revenue Service (IRS) agents.
The bill includes a staggering $80 billion infusion of mandatory funding for the IRS. This funding—six times the agency’s current budget—will empower the agency to hire an army of auditors to squeeze $204 billion out of taxpayers of all income levels to fund Democrats’ wishful "green new deal" policies.
