United states tax collector
Chapter 336: Battle of Congress
The next morning, Langman, who had everything ready, immediately ordered his secretary to post a proposal to abolish the black tax bill on Facebook, a social platform.
After that, other Freemason members or members who had been won over also followed suit.
This sudden news quickly became the top search on Facebook and even began to extend to other social platforms.
Such a big news, even if the three major media had been "conquered" by David, they naturally did not dare to play dead in order to keep their jobs, and they also joined in the broadcast one by one.
"Oh my god? Why is the black tax bill going to be repealed again?"
"According to Senator Longman, he has been investigating the black tax bill for several months and has mastered the major violations of this bill. Is it true?"
"The last time, the congressmen of Pips said the same thing. What happened later? Didn't they stop? In my opinion, Senator Longman just wants to gain popularity before the mid-term elections!"
"Support Senator Longman to repeal the black tax bill!"
"Support, support..."
For a time, the whole network of people started a heated discussion about this.
As for those lawbreakers, when they saw that someone else stood up to save their interests after the congressmen of Pips, they naturally increased their momentum in various ways.
Internal Revenue Service, tax supervision department.
After a week, David has been completely familiar with the operation process of this department and has stabilized his position.
At this moment, the door of the office was knocked, and then Simmons pushed the door and walked in, saying anxiously: "Oh no, Boss, turn on the TV and watch CBS TV now!"
"Oh?"
With some curiosity, David quickly followed his instructions and turned on the TV station on the computer.
"Behind us now is the Capitol Building. In addition to the social platform, Senator Langman has just explained to us that he has been paying attention to the IRS's black tax bill for a long time. According to his investigation, since the black tax bill was passed, the power brought by the IRS by this bill has no supervision. There are illegal taxation, violent taxation, and serious infringement of the rights of citizens."
"And according to him, he and his colleagues have submitted a proposal to Congress to abolish the black tax bill. I think the main work of Congress today must be to discuss this. For more details, please continue to pay attention to this TV station to bring you..."
In the TV station, a reporter was broadcasting.
Although I didn't see what happened before, it was not difficult to guess what happened from the reporter's remarks.
There were more than one congressman who stood up and impeached the IRS's black tax bill again!
But this time, it was different from the previous congressmen of Pips.
This time, the impeachment was done by a member of the Senate, and this representative senator named Langman had already submitted the proposal to Congress. This was obviously very well prepared!
"Hehe..."
While thinking, there was a knock on the door, and it was Keppel who David brought from Los Angeles who came in. She said: "Inspector General, Director Obadiah asked you to go to the meeting room."
The senior officials of the General Administration obviously received the news, and David nodded and stood up.
While the IRS was holding a meeting, a fierce quarrel broke out in the Capitol.
"Langman, this is our House of Representatives' business. I'm afraid it's not your turn to take the lead and interfere, right?"
"Whether it's the House of Representatives or the Senate, the essence of the work is actually the same. I'm just insisting on expressing my own political views."
"Haha, you said it nicely. The repeal of the black tax bill is of great importance. If it fails, you can pat your butt and run back to the Senate, but what if David is angry with our House of Representatives?"
"Failure? Do you think we are those guys like Pips who are not a big deal? Let me tell you, I dare to do this because I am sure of it!"
"You..."
The two people who are confronting each other, one is Langman from the Senate, and the other is Josh, the House Whip whom David has met once.
Josh knows how powerful David is, and as the whip of the House of Representatives, he must also be responsible for the House of Representatives where he is, so he doesn't want to get involved in disputes such as the repeal of the black tax bill, which will cause huge troubles.
However, he also knew that Langman was a Freemason. The reason why the other party dared to do this was probably because they had won over the majority of the members of their House of Representatives. His opposition was probably a bit weak.
"Josh, it doesn't matter if you don't support us, but it's better not to stop us. After all, the mid-term elections are coming soon. I think you'd better get busy with re-election!"
Hearing this, Josh's face suddenly flushed.
Although the other party was admonishing him on the surface, how could he not hear the threat in his words.
The Freemasonry may not be able to get him re-elected, but if they want to make him unable to be re-elected, they are still very sure.
After thinking about it, Josh still couldn't swallow this breath. He said viciously: "I can not obstruct the passage of the proposal, but before deliberation, a hearing must be held first, otherwise, you can't think of passing it to the voting stage!"
In America.
The so-called hearing system is a system that effectively protects public interests and private rights of citizens and allows compromise to become the "lubricant" of society.
On the one hand, it participates in social public affairs by absorbing the interests and will of all parties, making public decision-making and social governance more standardized and reasonable.
on the other hand.
It is a system that can ease social contradictions, reduce social conflicts, maintain social stability, coordinate the forces of all parties, and promote the diversification and democratization of social public activities.
As for the rules of operation, it is also very simple.
In the American legislative process.
A bill may be submitted to Congress or local legislative bodies for consideration only after it has been reviewed and approved by a committee of Congress or local legislative bodies and the executive branch of the United States.
Therefore, legislative hearings will be convened by congressional committees or the executive branch of the United States.
Once the relevant departments agree to hold a hearing, they will announce the time, location, topics and rules of the public hearing to the media, arrange the personnel to participate in the hearing, and prepare various materials related to it.
A quorum is required for a hearing to be convened.
In addition, at the hearing, the chief representative of the hearing will first make a public statement to introduce the purpose, theme, significance, etc. of the hearing.
A swearing-in ceremony will then be held to introduce the hearing officers. When the hearing witness explains his or her own point of view, he or she can only make a summary statement. Take questions from the Hearing Committee for the allotted five minutes.
Usually, after all the hearing personnel have made their statements, the hearing personnel will ask questions to the summoned hearing personnel.
The entire hearing process must be made public through news media such as radio, television, and the Internet, unless the content of the hearing involves confidential issues such as national security.
Generally speaking, if a bill wants to be repealed or enacted, it must be proposed and reviewed by the House of Representatives before it can go to the vote.
But if the passed bill fails to pass deliberation, especially if it is an overly influential bill such as the repeal of the black tax bill, this will be a big blow to the House of Representatives.
After the deliberation is passed, a hearing is held first. You can first look at the results of this hearing, and then judge whether it is necessary to proceed to the next step based on the form.
If the hearing is conducive to the abolition of the black tax bill, then it will naturally proceed directly to deliberation and even voting.
If it is unfavorable, it can be canceled directly, which will also save the House of Representatives from greater consequences.
Langman frowned.
Although he thinks he has enough votes to repeal the black tax bill, Josh is the House whip after all and controls the disciplinary issues of all members of the entire house.
If this guy really gets into trouble with him, maybe at a critical moment, it would be bad if this guy secretly makes a stumbling block.
"Well, since you, Party Whip Josh, said you want to hold a hearing, then we will hold it. But as for the personnel of the hearing... I think we can handle it, okay?"
Longman finally gave in.
Because he thought about it carefully, it was not all bad to hold the hearing first. At least as long as they achieved an overwhelming victory in the hearing, this might make some swing members determined to get involved.
"Okay, I agree!"
…
IRS, conference room.
While Obadiah, David and other senior officials were still discussing countermeasures, an assistant of Obadiah walked in, whispered a few words to him, and immediately turned on the big-screen TV.
What I saw on the TV at this time was the scene in the hall of Congress. Soon, a speaker of Congress stepped into the spotlight and said: "Hello everyone, I am Peter, the speaker of the House of Representatives. I passed by this house. Discussion: The proposal to repeal the Black Tax Act has been approved by this court. We will hold a hearing in two days. At that time, representatives from the IRS will be invited to make a statement, and then we will decide whether it will be considered. Even the voting session..."
Listening to the speaker's words, everyone present fell into a state of thinking.
They had previously thought that since the Freemasons had been planning for so long, they would definitely bring the abolition of the bill to the stage of deliberation.
What is unexpected is that after the proposal is passed, a hearing will be held first.
But having said that, this so-called hearing can actually be said to be an early ‘trial’ for the IRS.
As long as the IRS cannot withstand the offensive of the hearing members at this hearing, the IRS will be in a very passive situation.
The impeachment process will immediately enter the congressional review and voting stages.
When the time comes, it will become easier to repeal the black tax bill!
"The Freemasons are eager to kill us as soon as they get started, and they definitely don't want to delay it like this. So I think this hearing must have been proposed by some big figures in the House of Representatives for fear of being affected."
"Well, Donald, you are right, but this is not a good thing for us."
Obadiah agreed, then looked at David and asked, "Inspector General David, what do you think?"
"Let me make some arrangements first."
David had been preparing for the bill review, but this sudden hearing disrupted his rhythm.
But fortunately, there are still two days to prepare, and it should be able to be settled with a little effort.
After returning to his office, David immediately took out his cell phone and dialed Elvis' number, saying, "Deputy Director Elvis, some members of Congress want to repeal our black tax bill. You should know about this, right?"
"Just received some news, how is it, Inspector General David?"
"I want you to help me get the names of the people who will attend the hearing. This should not be difficult for you CIA, right?"
The hearing is different from the committee to repeal the black tax bill.
The members of the hearing are selected by the House of Representatives. He must find out who will attend so that he can target them.
"It's not difficult to say it's not difficult. OK, I'll help you check it!"
"That's going to be quick. You know I don't have that much time."
"Got it..."
After hanging up the phone, David called Gavin at the FBI for safety reasons. As for the content, of course, he asked the other party to use the FBI's channels to get a list of people attending the hearing for him.
Given that the News Corporation incident made Gavin the center of attention, he naturally agreed to this request.
With the investigation of these two major agencies, David felt relieved. However, he did not intend to sit idle, so he called in Buckinison Simmons and the other two to find out the news.
The next day, David had just arrived at the office when he received the news that Elvis had arrived. He immediately asked someone to bring him to the office.
"Hey, Inspector General David, I happened to be busy with official business and could not attend your promotion celebration dinner last time. You won't blame me, right?"
As soon as he entered the door, Elvis smiled.
"Why would I care about such a small matter? What's more, I was actually a little embarrassed at that dinner."
"Oh, those Ansa people always regard themselves as the masters of America, but they are not easy to serve..."
As the intelligence chief of the CIA, Elvis dared to know what happened at the dinner, and he also showed a trace of helplessness.
"Forget about this, you came to me so early in the morning, have you made any progress on the task I asked you to do?"
Elvis took out a folded paper from his inner pocket and put it in front of David, saying, "Actually, you don't have to bother the FBI guys, after all, this kind of thing is our strong point!"
There was a hint of pride in his tone.
David narrowed his eyes and said, "You know all this?"
"Don't misunderstand Inspector General David, I dare not eavesdrop or monitor you, but when investigating, it is inevitable that both sides will find some things in common."
Elvis was afraid that David would misunderstand, so he quickly put away his smile and explained.
David didn't say any more nonsense, picked up the paper and spread it out to read.
