Frank Lautenberg: “Bring dangerous offshore drilling pursuit to an end.”

Identity theft is a serious and growing problem in the United States and a daunting challenge for the IRS.

I am deeply concerned that recent cuts to the IRS budget are jeopardizing its ability to carry out this vital mission.

The IRS must be funded at a level that enables it to provide necessary taxpayer assistance and to enforce the laws.

The requested 6 percent cut to FinCEN is a concern.
