Biden's Costly, Intrusive Plan for the IRS

President Biden’s nominee for Secretary of Labor, Julie Su, testified before the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP) Committee yesterday. Su has a track record of implementing radical labor policies targeting independent contractors and the franchising sector alike. As the head of California’s labor department, she oversaw the squandering of over $30 billion in taxpayer dollars to unemployment fraud.

 ATR Federal Affairs Coordinator Rowan Saydlowski joins Grover Norquist on Leave Us Alone to discuss the dangers of Biden’s radical nominee.

Today there are 21 states with school choice programs including 6 with universal school choice for K-12 education.

As state legislators across the country restore parental rights in education, Corey DeAngelis joins Grover to discuss the coming School Choice Revolution. 

Corey DeAngelis is a senior fellow at the American Federation for Children. He is also the executive director at Educational Freedom Institute, an adjunct scholar at the Cato Institute, a senior fellow at Reason Foundation, and a board member at Liberty Justice Center. 

The most successful states that have legalized sports betting have a competitive, low-tax environment with focused regulation that puts integrity first – rather than using regulations to handicap certain companies or provide giveaways to sports leagues.

In this episode, Grover talks with Brandt Iden, Vice President of Government Affairs for Fanatics Betting & Gaming. Previously, Iden served as a former Michigan State legislator where he was the primary author of Michigan’s sports betting bill. He possesses unique insights into this growing industry from both a market and elected official perspectives.

Due to the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank, American taxpayers are obviously concerned about the health of the U.S. banking system. Federal regulators insured deposits beyond the $250,000 FDIC limit to protect against "systemic risk." 

The Biden administration disingenuously claims taxpayers will not be on the hook for bailing out SVB.

Taxpayers will ultimately pay more for banking services because the regulators decided to insure all depositors, circumventing the $250,000 threshold.

Buried in the misnamed Inflation Reduction Act passed by Democrats is a provision that hands the IRS $15 million in taxpayer funding to lay the groundwork for creating a government-run tax preparation system.

This would incentivize the IRS to overcharge taxpayers or withhold information from filers to maximize revenue. Private tax preparation companies, in contrast, have a financial incentive to minimize the taxes their clients owe.

Congress should resist any effort that would empower the IRS to simultaneously act as tax preparer, collector, and auditor.

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is an absolute dumpster fire. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen gave the agency a 6-month deadline to disclose how they would spend the additional $80 billion in funding provided by Congress. Still, the IRS missed the deadline and doesn't appear worried. Taxpayers deserve increased transparency and accountability from the IRS to ensure that our tax dollars are used effectively and efficiently.

The misleadingly-named “Protecting the Right to Organize” (PRO) Act would dramatically increase Big Labor’s power at the expense of the American worker. The bill is a grab-bag of liberal priorities that would kill small businesses and threaten millions of American jobs.

Yet the PRO Act is only one component of President Joe Biden’s war on worker freedom. ATR President Grover Norquist and Open Competition Center's Tom Hebert discuss the PRO Act and the Biden administration’s plan to carry out Big Labor’s agenda.
