In 2016, the IRS told Congress they weren’t rehiring problem employees, so I asked the Inspector General to investigate. Guess what the IG found: https://t.co/aEbHhGfoMr 2/3 https://t.co/fXkd6wSESD — PolitiTweet.org

Most Americans agree: Government employees fired for misconduct should not be rehired. However, that's not always the case at the IRS. The agency has a long history of rehiring employees who were previously terminated for offenses like fraud and falsification of documents. 1/3 — PolitiTweet.org

After the IG’s devastating report, I led a bill to prohibit the IRS Commissioner from continuing this unacceptable practice. I'm happy to say it was signed into law as part of the #TaxpayerFirstAct, the most significant IRS reform in nearly two decades. 3/3 — PolitiTweet.org
