Friend,
President-elect Donald Trump and a Republican-controlled Congress will
undoubtedly try to move quickly on preventing the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA)
expiration and addressing our nation's dire financial outlook.
However, IRS reform also needs to be a priority.
The IRS has a long history of mismanagement, inefficiency, overreach, and
creating unnecessary burdens for taxpayers.
The National Taxpayers Union (NTU) has a long history too-of reining in the
IRS and holding them accountable to American taxpayers.
I am Pete Sepp, President of the National Taxpayers Union. NTU is the “Voice
of America's Taxpayers.” We fight to ensure that all Americans are able to
pursue their dreams without the heavy hand of the government holding them back.
Right now, our research has identified 10 critical reforms for the IRS. But
before I share them with you, I must ask for your urgent support. Click below

Here are 10 IRS reforms and policies that must be at the top of the new
administration's agenda:
1. Produce a regular report to Congress on where tax code administration is
overly complex and can be simplified.
2. Provide Congress with direct access to IRS technical staff for legislative
and rulemaking purposes.
3. Create a detailed punch list and implementation plan for technology
modernization.
4. Make the IRS Independent Office of Appeals truly independent and accessible
to taxpayers.
5. Permit the National Taxpayer Advocate, an office NTU lobbied for to stand
up for taxpayers, to hire her own attorney rather than use IRS lawyers.

6. Allow Congress to decide the future of the Direct File program. The IRS far
exceeded its authority to stand up this program when there are far bigger
modernization priorities.
7. Halt counterproductive, aggressive litigation strategies against certain
taxpayers utilizing lawful tax savings provisions. This is clogging the courts
and delaying settlements, needlessly costing the government and taxpayers.
8. Rescind the proposed supervisory signature regulation that lets the IRS
heap penalties on taxpayers without accountability, and follow the “no
signature, no penalty” intent of current law.
9. Rescind unworkable cryptocurrency regulations, including one slated to take
effect in 2025.
10. Publish a dashboard of regular IRS performance metrics and data to inform
decision-making.
These reforms could shift the IRS from being one of the most unliked
government agencies by improving its transparency, modernization, and customer
service.

We look forward to the incoming Trump Administration, its Treasury Secretary,
and its choice of IRS Commissioner working to defend the rights of taxpayers.
But we can't just hope for the best. We must work from the outside to make
change happen on the inside.
NTU is YOUR lobbyist who can get this critical job done. Please help us
succeed with your most generous support.
Thank you,
Pete Sepp
