SRES 828 United States Senate · 119th Congress

A resolution expressing the sense of the Senate that President Trump's lawsuit against the Internal Revenue Service, the resulting settlement from that lawsuit, the purported "Anti-Weaponization Fund", and the purported grant of immunity from tax investigations to the plaintiffs in President Trump's lawsuit, should be rejected, equal protection arguments by others with similar claims should be forestalled, and this settlement should not serve as a precedent and should never be repeated.

This Senate resolution expresses the chamber's view that a lawsuit filed by President Trump against the IRS and its subsequent settlement should be rejected. The bill argues that the settlement, which includes a proposed "Anti-Weaponization Fund" and a grant of tax immunity to the President and his family, violates the principle of equal protection by offering special treatment not available to other victims of the same data breach. It further states that allowing this agreement to stand would set a dangerous precedent that could lead to similar immunity claims from hundreds of thousands of other individuals, potentially costing the government billions in lost revenue. Ultimately, the resolution calls for the settlement to never be repeated and urges that others with similar claims should not be able to use equal protection arguments to secure comparable benefits.
