The Trump administration and Department of Government Efficiency are proposing a dramatic downsizing of the Internal Revenue Service that would result in a nearly 20% reduction of its workforce by May 15 — one month after Tax Day in the United States.

The details of the IRS proposal have been laid out in an email from DOGE and will be discussed at a meeting among agency leadership Thursday morning, according to a source familiar with the matter who asked to remain anonymous for fear of retaliation. The proposal has not been made public.

The latest round of layoffs would terminate nearly 6,800 employees — on top of about 6,700 probationary employees who have already been fired and 4,700 employees who took the "voluntary buyout" known as the "Fork in the Road" program from the Trump administration.
