Treasury Secretary Jack Lew let loose on Friday when he called out Congress for underfunding the Internal Revenue Service, or IRS.
.
"I think that over the last few years, you've seen a very distressing trend that Congress is cutting the funding of the IRS year after year, which limits our ability to both enforce our tax laws, but also to provide services to taxpayers," Lew said. "The first I think is just foolish."
.
The IRS is a favorite political punching bag for antigovernment Republicans, who try to starve the agency responsible for collecting the revenue needed to fund critical Federal services.
