WASHINGTON, DC - Ways and Means Committee Ranking Member Sander Levin (D-MI) today issued the following statement to mark Tax Day - the filing deadline for IRS tax returns:
“Unable to act on a budget or other key legislation, the Republicans are castigating the IRS for its poor customer service, when it is their budget cuts that are responsible for the declines in service. Republicans should have Congress acting on significant issues like the budget," said Rep. Levin.
“Republicans also use tax reform as an excuse for failure to act immediately on another pressing issue - corporate tax inversions. While the Administration has taken steps to curb corporate tax inversions, their action is still not enough. Congress must pass legislation immediately to stop the flow of corporate tax inversions once and for all, and then we must work together to reform the tax code so that it is fairer and more equitable for all Americans."
