American Tax Officer

Chapter 663: Chapter 334: Battle in the Congress
 

The next morning, everything in place, Langman immediately instructed his secretary to post a proposal for the repeal of the “black tax law” on the social media platform, Facebook.

After that, other members of Freemasonry or those they had persuaded also followed suit.

This sudden news quickly topped the Facebook trending list and even began to spread to other social media platforms.

Given such major news, even though the three major media had been “captured” by David, they naturally did not dare to play dead and each broadcasted the news as well.

“Oh my God? They want to repeal the black tax law again?”

“According to Senator Langman, he has been investigating the black tax law for several months and has discovered major violations within the law. Is that true?”

“Last time, it was Phipps and several congressmen who said the same thing, and what happened eventually? They all backed down. In my opinion, Senator Langman just wants to gain popularity before the midterm elections!”

“Support Senator Langman for repealing the black tax law!”

“Support, support…”

Suddenly, netizens all over the web sparked a heated debate.

As for the criminals, once they saw someone standing out after Phipps and other congressmen, trying to reclaim their interests, they naturally started to boost their voices through various means.

Internal Revenue Service, Tax Monitoring Department.

After a week, David had thoroughly familiarized himself with the department’s operations and had steadied his position.

At this moment, the door to the office was knocked, and Simmons came in, looking panicked, and said, “Not good, BOSS, you need to turn on the TV to CBS Television right now!”

“Oh?”

Curious, David quickly followed his instructions and turned on the television on his computer.

“What’s behind us now is the Capitol Building. Apart from on social media platforms, Senator Langman has also explained to us that he has been focusing on the IRS’s black tax law for a long time. According to his investigation, since the passage of the black tax law, the IRS’s reliance on this law has been unsupervised, involving illegal taxation and aggressive taxation, severely infringing on citizens’ rights.”

“As he stated, he and his colleagues have already submitted a proposal to the Congress to repeal the black tax law. I think today’s main work in Congress will definitely involve discussing this topic. For more details, please continue to follow our station…”

The television reporter was broadcasting.

Although he hadn’t seen what happened earlier, it wasn’t hard to guess from the reporter’s statement.

Not just one, but multiple congressmen had stood up and impeached their IRS’s black tax law again!

However, this time was different from before with Phipps and those congressmen.

This impeachment was by Senate members, and this representative Senator named Langman had already submitted the proposal to Congress, clearly very well-prepared!

“Giggle…”

In his thoughts, the door was knocked again, and Kepel, who David had brought over from Los Angeles, came in and said, “Chief Inspector, Director Obadiah wants you to come to the meeting room.”

Clearly, the higher-ups were also informed of this news, and David nodded and stood up.

Meanwhile, in the Parliament House, an intense argument was erupting.

“Langman, this is the House of Congressman’s affair; I’m afraid it’s not your place as a Senator to meddle, is it?”

“Whether it’s the House of Congressman or the Senate, the essence of the work is similar. I’m just insisting on expressing my political views.”

“Heh, you make it sound nice. The repeal of the black tax law is a major issue. If this fails, you can just pack up and return to the Senate, but what if David takes his anger out on us in the House of Congressman?”

“Fail? Do you think we are like those ineffective folks like Phipps? Let me tell you, I dare to do this because I am entirely confident!”

“You…”

The two confronting each other were naturally Senator Langman and Josh, the House Whip, whom David had met once.

Josh knew how formidable David was, and as the House Whip, he had to be responsible for his own House of Congressman, so he didn’t want to get involved in a dispute over repealing the black tax law, which could cause tremendous trouble.

However, he was also aware that Langman was a member of Freemasonry, and the reason he dared to do this was probably that he had already secured the support of the majority of their House of Congressman members. His opposition seemed a bit weak.

“Josh, it’s fine if you don’t support us, but you’d better not try to stop us, especially since the midterm elections are approaching. I think you’d better focus on your reelection!”

Hearing this, Josh’s face flushed with anger.

Although the other party seemed to be advising him, he could clearly hear the threat in the words.@@novelbin@@

Freemasonry might not ensure his reelection, but if they wanted to sabotage his chances, they were very capable of doing so.

After some thought, Josh was still reluctant to swallow his pride and said fiercely, “I might not obstruct the passage of the proposal,
