It’s no secret that the Biden administration has done everything it can to weaponize the federal administrative state against conservatives, including the IRS, just as Biden’s predecessor Barack Obama did.

If you could have guessed which state would become the first battleground against a weaponized IRS, Florida would probably be at the top of your list.

Florida’s Chief Financial Officer Jimmy Patronis, who also doubles as the state fire marshal, released the text of a bill that serves as part of his IRS Protection Plan for the state.

“Recently, the CFO announced he would work to pass legislation for the upcoming session to fight back against the IRS, which is expected to grow by 87,000 personnel through an $80 billion appropriation of taxpayer money from the Inflation Reduction Act President Biden signed into law in August,” Patronis’ office said in a statement. “Additionally, the CFO said his office will create an IRS transparency site where members of the public can report potential discrimination and targeting activities by IRS agents.”

Patronis also included the text of the bill, which is part of his IRS Protection Plan. The plan has four pillars, and each one has its own specific role in keeping Floridians protected from the IRS.
