I.R.S. Commissioner to Quit as Trump Takes Office
Briefly

Daniel Werfel, the IRS commissioner, announced his resignation as Donald Trump prepares to take office, ushering in a new leadership era for the agency.
In a message to the IRS employees, Werfel emphasized his resignation as a means to support the incoming administration, despite his love for the job and agency.
The IRS, under Werfel’s leadership, received $60 billion in funding to improve tax collection efforts, particularly targeting wealthy Americans and upgrading technology.
Trump’s nomination of Billy Long to lead the IRS raises concerns as his tax-related experience is limited to advocating a temporary tax credit for small businesses.
