Trump Plans to Reassign or Terminate 88,000 IRS Agents for Border Duty After Hiring Freeze
Jan 25, 2025, 10:43 PM
President Donald Trump has announced plans to either terminate or reassign approximately 88,000 IRS agents to border enforcement duties. This decision follows a halt in the hiring of 87,000 new IRS agents, which was part of an executive decree that also enacted a federal agency hiring freeze. The move is intended to address border security, with Trump suggesting that the IRS agents could be repurposed to work as border agents or be forced to resign.
