On the recordFebruary 2, 1994
the IRS recently wrongfully accused over 100,000 honest taxpayers of cheating. They said, ``No big deal; it was a computer mistake. We apologize.'' Maybe in this case I can agree. But, ladies and gentleman, here is the law: When the IRS points an accusatory finger at an American taxpayer, the American taxpayer is guilty and must prove themselves innocent. Unbelievable, disgusting as it is. And the American people keep asking Congress, ``How can you allow this, Congress?'' My bill, H.R. 3261, says that when the IRS points an accusatory finger, they have the burden of proof. I say, ``Congress, it is time for Congress to give the IRS the finger for a change. It is time to take the country back.''
