Manchin Says Biden’s Plan to Let IRS Snoop on Bank Transactions Will Not End up in Final Spending Bill
Democrat Senator Joe Manchin (WV) on Tuesday said Biden’s plan to allow the IRS to snoop on bank transactions will not end up in the final spending bill.
Manchin made the remarks at The Economic Club of Washington, DC.
“I said, ‘Do you understand how messed up that is to think that Uncle Sam’s going to be watching,’” Manchin said of what he told Joe Biden. “I told him…. this cannot happen, this is screwed up.”
Manchin clarified his remarks to a Bloomberg reporter later Tuesday.
“No one should be in anyone’s bank account,” he said.
BANK REPORTING : @Sen_JoeManchin clarifies to me he opposed bank reporting no matter what the threshold.
