Bill Summary
To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to require the termination of employment of IRS employees for discrimination against any taxpayer on basis of political affiliation, and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill proposes to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to mandate the termination of employment for any Internal Revenue Service (IRS) employee found to be discriminating against a taxpayer based on their political affiliation, defining such discrimination as treating someone differently due to their membership or beliefs in a political party, organization, or ideology. Additionally, it seeks to clarify that misuse of government resources by IRS employees can also lead to termination, specifically if done for arbitrary, capricious, or politically motivated reasons. Furthermore, the bill aims to allow taxpayers who have been wrongfully discriminated against to recover costs and fees in legal proceedings, with "wrongful discrimination" being defined by a violation of specific rights outlined in the Internal Revenue Service Restructuring and Reform Act of 1998.
