(WASHINGTON D.C.) – 3rd District Congressman Jason Chaffetz says government workers behind on taxes should be fired. The Utah Republican introduced legislation in the House today that would allow federal agencies, Congress and the White House to terminate workers who are frequent tax cheats. Chaffetz said the government is paying 276,300 people who are behind on $3 billion in tax payments, including 678 on Congress’s payroll and 50 who work in the executive office of the president. He targets those people classified by the IRS as owing a “seriously delinquent tax debt.” Chaffetz plans to tie his measure to President Barack Obama’s call to bar funding for federal contractors who are behind on their taxes.
