Funding for agencies does not happen in a single subcommittee. Functionally, “the IRS is competing against other agencies,” Holtzblatt said. While the IRS looks at its budget in totality, in appropriations, a subcommittee looks at many agencies that fit together within a broad category. This point is key because the IRS has several functions, so in the appropriations process, those functions will be separately identified and appropriated for. Whether the agency gets the money it seeks or that money goes to another agency with a similar function depends on a roll of the dice. And with Republicans dispositionally opposed to the IRS, it will be a challenge for the agency to win those battles.
