On the recordMay 28, 2020
Last I knew, 20 million American had not received their stimulus checks. In the 3 months since the CARES Act, I have been patient; South Dakotans have been patient as they wait for help some of them truly need. Mr. Speaker, my patience has run low, especially since Americans are also waiting months for their tax returns. Ben, from Marshall County, filed his in February. He is $400 short on rent. He has been counting on his tax return. It is his money. But the IRS has not returned his phone calls, and they have not returned the phone calls or emails of congressional offices. Workers in hospitals and in factories and in packing plants and in banks are working overtime to meet the needs of this Nation. I do not see that same dedication from the leadership of the IRS, and it is past time, Mr. Speaker, for them to get it together. ____________________
