Summary
The IRS will lay off thousands of probationary workers during tax season as part of the Trump administration’s push to shrink the federal workforce.
The cuts align with a broader initiative led by Elon Musk’s DOGE to eliminate agencies and reduce spending.
While the exact number of affected workers is unclear, the layoffs could impact tax processing for over 140 million returns.
Meanwhile, 14 state attorneys general have sued, arguing DOGE’s authority is unconstitutional and requires Senate confirmation.
