IRS Funding Accountability: Mandatory Spending Plans and Audit Reporting.

This law imposes strict oversight on billions of dollars allocated to the IRS, requiring detailed spending plans and regular quarterly reports. Citizens gain transparency on how funds are used to improve customer service and tax enforcement, including specific data on audits broken down by income group. Most new IRS spending is paused until Congress approves the initial comprehensive plan.
