Scott Perry: “Just to comment before I yield some time, if the bill is redundant, if this isn't happening anyhow, then you shouldn't…”

Just to comment before I yield some time, if the bill is redundant, if this isn't happening anyhow, then you shouldn't be opposed because it will affect no one. Regarding the 87,000 IRS agents, we are not talking about hiring 87,000 process workers to go through claims. We are talking about 87,000 agents to come to your home to investigate you. That is what we oppose. We want it to be done efficiently, and maybe if they weren't spending so much time on themselves, they could spend time on the American people. Mr. Chair, I yield such time as he may consume to the gentleman from Kentucky (Mr. Comer).
