                  REPUBLICAN REPEAL OF NEW IRS AGENTS

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. JOE WILSON

                           of south carolina

                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, December 7, 2022

  Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Madam Speaker, sadly in August, the 
Democrats passed the irresponsible $740 billion Inflation `Expansion' 
Act.
  According to the Congressional Budget Office this reckless 
legislation, now signed into law by Biden, will actually increase the 
deficit by $60 billion through 2026--putting more strain on the budgets 
of American families.
  In addition to a long list of unnecessary and costly actions planned, 
such as tax increases on corporations and some $350 billion creating 
dependency on Chinese batteries the law wastes $80 billion for the IRS 
hiring of an additional 87,000 more agents, increasing audits targeting 
families and businesses.
  Voters have elected a House Republican majority to fight inflation 
with fiscal sanity and repealing this IRS hiring is a high priority.
  In conclusion, God bless our troops, who successfully protected 
America for 20 years, as the Global War on Terrorism continues moving 
from the Afghanistan safe haven to America.
  As we remember the attack of December 7th, we will always remember 
the attack of September 11th to support peace through strength.
