Summary of Bill HR 1206

Bill 114 hr 1206, also known as the No Hires for the Delinquent IRS Act, is a piece of legislation introduced in the US Congress. The main purpose of this bill is to prohibit the hiring of new employees by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) if they have seriously delinquent tax debts.

Under this bill, the IRS is required to conduct a thorough background check on potential new hires to determine if they have any outstanding tax debts. If an individual is found to have seriously delinquent tax debts, they would be ineligible for employment with the IRS.

By preventing individuals with serious tax debts from being hired by the IRS, the bill seeks to uphold the integrity of the tax system and promote accountability among IRS employees. Overall, the No Hires for the Delinquent IRS Act is a measure designed to strengthen the IRS workforce and maintain public trust in the agency's ability to enforce tax laws effectively.
