House tries blocking 'illegal' IRS checks; Harry Reid says system working 'fine' Oct 28th 2013, 12:08 By Kenric Ward Published October 28, 2013 The House of Representatives repeatedly has passed an IRS bill that could save U.S. taxpayers $24.4 billion over the next 10 years — but Harry Reid's Democratic Senate will not hear it. The Refundable Child Tax Credit Eligibility Verification Reform Act, or H.R. 556, would require tax filers to provide Social Security numbers to claim child tax credits. Currently, the IRS allows undocumented residents to collect the $1,000 credits for dependents not even living in the country. Watchdog reported that illegal immigrants received $4.2 billion from the tax agency in just one year. "My bill (targets) billions of dollars in waste, fraud and abuse. Instead of hitting up taxpayers for even more taxes, Washington needs to go after these billions of dollars," said U.S. Rep. Sam Johnson, R-Texas. Though the GOP-controlled House has passed Johnson's measure three times, Senate Majority Leader Reid, D-Nev., refuses to allow the bill to come up for a vote in his chamber.
