Bill Summary

Prevent Targeting at the IRS Act

AI Summary

This bill, titled the Prevent Targeting at the IRS Act, aims to amend existing law to allow for the termination of employment for employees of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) who engage in specific misconduct. The key provision is the amendment of Section 1203(b)(10) of the Internal Revenue Service Restructuring and Reform Act of 1998, which will now explicitly include the termination of employment for IRS employees who perform, delay, or fail to perform any official action, including audits, with a taxpayer for the purpose of personal gain or benefit, or for a political purpose. This change is intended to prevent IRS employees from using their official authority for political reasons or personal advantage, and it will take effect immediately upon enactment of the bill.
