IRS 'is developing new Biden-backed algorithm that'll see more white and Asian people targeted for tax audits to boost racial "equity"
- America First Legal Foundation filed a Freedom of Information Act request for internal Treasury Department communications
- It claims that an executive order signed by President Biden last week encourages the IRS to alter its algorithms to audit more white and Asian taxpayers
- The algorithm the IRS uses was found to target black households and businesses more than non-black households and businesses
Though the Executive Order on Further Advancing Racial Equity and Support for Underserved Communities Through The Federal Government does not specifically mention audits, it directs federal agencies — including the IRS — to find ways to make their practices more 'equitable' to underserved communities.
Specifically, the order directs agencies to 'prevent and remedy discrimination, including by protecting the public from algorithmic discrimination.'
America First Legal Foundation is now investigating how that could affect the IRS, seeking internal documents from the agency referring to its efforts to improve 'equity' amongst Americans.
Under federal law, the Treasury Department now has just 20 business days to respond to the request.

Equity - Reparations based upon race. The side you are on will be determined based upon the DNA you were born with.
Inclusion - All are welcome, as long as they share our views
