Redirecting IRS Funds to Southern Border Security

This act diverts unused funds allocated for Internal Revenue Service (IRS) enforcement activities and reallocates them to strengthen the security of the U.S. southern border. This means money intended for tax audits will now be used to hire new Customs and Border Protection agents and officers. For citizens, this could imply a reduced focus on IRS tax enforcement and increased resources for border security.
Key points
Unused IRS funds designated for tax enforcement activities will be rescinded.
The rescinded funds will be redirected to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to hire new agents and officers for southern border security.
