chaos at irs as massive layoffs threaten tax collection system
IRS employees are facing chaos and uncertainty as Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) plans to cut 20-25% of the workforce by May 15, potentially leading to the closure of over 110 taxpayer assistance offices. The agency's leadership is in disarray, with mass firings already affecting thousands, raising concerns about the future of tax collection and customer service. Allegations suggest DOGE may also seek to weaponize tax data against undocumented immigrants, prompting legal challenges from advocacy groups.
