The budget cuts to the IRS are causing hardships for the American people and the tax professionals that assist them with their protecting their rights. The budget cuts have led to wait times on phones that exceed 45 minutes and may even result in being told to call on a different day as the IRS is too busy to accept the phone call. This is seemingly ironic when tax professionals can call Priority Service and still expect wait times to be painfully excessive. We the people petition the government to restore funding for the IRS and stop penalizing the American people by cutting the IRS budget.
