The proposal stems from the Treasury\u2019s \u201cAmerican Families Plan Tax Compliance Agenda.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>Yellen, IRS Push Tax Compliance Agenda on Wednesday \u2014 Biden Fails to Mention Agenda in Tweets and Facebook Posts<\/h2>\n<p>Using Twitter, United States president Joe Biden told the public that if a citizen made under $400,000 his administration won\u2019t raise taxes. \u201cTo be clear,\u201d Biden <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/POTUS\/status\/1437898861704581122?s=20\">tweeted<\/a> on Tuesday, \u201cIf you make under 400k, my Build Back Better Agenda won\u2019t raise your taxes a cent. Not only that \u2014 you\u2019ll get a historic tax cut, and see lower costs on things like child care and health care. And all of it will be paid for by the wealthy paying their fair share,\u201d Biden\u2019s tweet added.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>The following day Janet Yellen and Charles Rettig \u201cpressed lawmakers\u201d about giving the IRS more access to annual inflow and outflow information about taxpayer bank accounts. The Wall Street Journal <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WSJ\/status\/1438223622674567179?s=20\">tweeted<\/a> about the story saying that the \u201cBiden administration [is trying] to salvage its struggling tax-compliance proposal.\u201d The publication\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/yellen-irs-push-democrats-to-require-banks-to-report-annual-account-flows-11631727020?mod=e2tw\">article<\/a> about the matter also went into more detail about the \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/home.treasury.gov\/system\/files\/136\/The-American-Families-Plan-Tax-Compliance-Agenda.pdf?fbclid=IwAR27nGkNSNrCxlRV0Ek0WqpQFYmSJisQgdVJWzEI8wuR4uvBScn2MhPEgeU\">American Families Plan Tax Compliance Agenda<\/a>\u201d and explained that \u201cHouse Democrats didn\u2019t include a bank account reporting provision in their tax bill.\u201d Other reports <a href=\"https:\/\/www.americanbanker.com\/news\/yellen-urges-house-to-include-irs-reporting-provision-in-budget-package\">confirm<\/a> \u201ca list of House \u2018pay-fors\u2019 did not include the IRS reporting requirement.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The American Families Plan Tax Compliance Agenda&#8221; on the heels of nation states adopting and legalizing cryptocurrency doesn&#8217;t seem like a coincidence.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 m\u03b1t\u03b1d\u24ffr (@bitOHfunguy) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/bitOHfunguy\/status\/1435814696540508162?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 9, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Of course, Joe Biden does not mention such matters in his tweets nor does he explain how the American Families Plan tax reform <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ChrisPacia\/status\/1438272553735368710?s=20\">can hurt Americans<\/a> via capital gains taxes. Biden\u2019s Facebook and Twitter posts also fail to mention the annual inflow and outflow monitoring. The monitoring is clearly an invasion of privacy and the proposal is catching criticism for the attempt.<\/p>\n<p>Author Matt Welch <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MattWelch\/status\/1435662237209923593?s=20\">tweeted<\/a> on September 8: \u201cMy latest <a href=\"https:\/\/reason.com\/2021\/09\/08\/bidens-total-financial-surveillance\/\">Reason print column<\/a> is about how Biden, Elizabeth Warren, and the IRS want to construct a vast surveillance network to track all your financial transactions, under the creepy name of \u2018The American Families Plan Tax Compliance Agenda.\u2019 In the report, Welch asks:<\/p>\n<p>What if every one of your noncash financial transactions was automatically reported to a beefed-up, audit-hungry IRS?<\/p>\n<h2>The Missouri Bank Warns Monitoring Will \u2018Expose Your Financial Privacy,\u2019 Americans Ask Why $600<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/TheMissouriBank\/?__cft__%5B0%5D=AZVMC4kr1cAyXPLciCZituQpZ60iSRcQxmP-qdDAyZoUEDOGzOrUwwSU6WMPDZnoQoiD6o_I57YRsq-3lg8i8acimfHfCI-1QqXx9Hwz0sboZ4Wf5ZkeI3nKv8A0EyQZebaIIh5LTmYAIl4IKXg7p9aUVglSjlbQJqHStB-MFFSvAg&amp;__tn__=-UC%2CP-y-R\">The Missouri Bank<\/a> (TMB) posted a complaint to Facebook about the situation on September 10. \u201cWhile The Missouri Bank does not normally engage on topics relating to politics, we feel there is an URGENT matter pending in Congress that needs your attention,\u201d TMB said in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/1909931465738886\/posts\/4380641302001211\/?d=n\">Facebook post<\/a>. \u201cBecause we care about you, your finances, and your account(s) with TMB, we want you to know the facts, especially when it relates to concerning developments around public policy that expose your financial privacy.\u201d TMB further adds:<\/p>\n<p>This indiscriminate, comprehensive bank account reporting to the IRS can soon be enacted in Congress and will create an unacceptable invasion of privacy for our customers. So, how does this affect you? If passed, the proposal would require financial institutions, like ours, to report the inflows (deposits) and outflows (withdrawals) of $600 or more, on personal and business accounts to the IRS regardless of customers\u2019 consent.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, many are confused by Biden\u2019s tactics to have the agenda make it so the IRS can spy on individuals with $600, as the billionaire class Democrats attack are not at all concerned about $600. \u201cIt claims to increase taxes on Billionaires but I don\u2019t know very many billionaires making $600 deposits or [withdrawals]. I do know a lot of normal hard working people though where that $600 could be their rent money or paycheck,\u201d one individual <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/OctopusGilded\/status\/1437051362752225285?s=20\">wrote<\/a> on Twitter.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>What do you think about Joe Biden\u2019s \u201cAmerican Families Plan Tax Compliance Agenda\u201d and Yellen and the IRS pressing for it?
