JANET YELLEN: There are a class of partnerships, businesses, high-income individuals who have opaque sources of income that the IRS doesn't have direct information about. That's where the tax gap is.
HORSLEY: The administration hopes to narrow that gap by hiring more auditors to look for tax cheats. And to focus that search, it wants to require banks and other financial institutions to report how much money is flowing in and out of accounts worth at least $600. Yellen got a lot of pushback this week from Republican lawmakers. Wyoming Senator Cynthia Lummis suggested incorrectly that the government wants to monitor every financial transaction.
(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)
CYNTHIA LUMMIS: Do you distrust the American people so much that you need to know when they bought a couch or a cow?
HORSLEY: Yellen stressed the government is not asking for details about individual bank withdrawals or deposits - just the annual totals.
(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)
YELLEN: I don't believe it's an invasion of privacy. And look; the IRS gets a great deal of information that it needs in order to make sure that taxpayers comply with the tax code.

Garland says authorities will target school board threats
A national school boards group asked the administration to help investigate and stop the increasing threats over policies including mask mandates.

WASHINGTON — Attorney General Merrick Garland on Monday directed federal authorities to hold strategy sessions in the next 30 days with law enforcement to address the increasing threats targeting school board members, teachers and other employees in the nation’s public schools.
In a memorandum, Garland said there has been “a disturbing spike in harassment, intimidation, and threats of violence against school administrators, board members, teachers, and staff who participate in the vital work of running our nation’s public schools.”
