Donovan says IRS needs overhaul
Tax Day has come and gone, but U.S. Rep. Dan Donovan is still focused on the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).
Charging that the IRS is in serious need of a major overhaul, Donovan (R-Southwest Brooklyn-Staten Island) recently voted to support a package of bills that he said are aimed at making the agency more accountable to the public.
“This package puts customer service ahead of employee bonuses, prevents tax-delinquent citizens from becoming tax collectors, and prohibits the IRS from rehiring employees who were already fired for misconduct,” Donovan said in a statement.
Tax Day this year was April 18.
