Statement, Hearing on IRS Privatization
OMB Watch contributed this statement to a hearing on the IRS private debt collection program.
At the hearing, which was held by the full House Ways and Means Committee, Rep. Charlie Rangel asked acting commissioner of the IRS Kevin Brown to not issue any more contracts to private debt collectors. Commissioner Brown did give a clear response, but Rep. Rangel seemed intent on reaching a compromise with IRS that contained the size of the program, making it unnecessary to immediately pass legislation that would end it.
