A BILL
To prevent implementation and enforcement of Obamacare.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``No IRS Implementation of Obamacare
Act''.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
Congress finds the following:
(1) Between March 2010 and May 2012, the Internal Revenue
Service (hereafter referred to as the ``IRS'') engaged in
specific targeting of conservative groups that submitted
501(c)(4) applications.
(2) IRS employees searched terms such as ``patriots'' and
``tea party'' and purposefully singled out these small-
government organizations for additional scrutiny and delay.
(3) The IRS sat on applications from over 75 conservative
groups for months, and in some cases, even years while sending
them exhaustive questionnaires delaying their approval for as
long as possible.
(4) This blatant breach of the public's trust and misuse of
taxpayer money runs counter to the core function of the IRS to
collect taxes from U.S. citizens regardless of their political
affiliations.
(5) The IRS is responsible for implementing the tax
increases of Obamacare.
(6) The IRS will make the final decisions of who is
eligible for subsidies after sharing taxpayer information with
the Department of Health and Human Services.
(7) A healthy democracy is one where people feel free to
express their views, not one where Federal agencies
discriminate based on political beliefs.
SEC. 3. PREVENTION OF IMPLEMENTATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF OBAMACARE BY
IRS.
The Secretary of the Treasury, or any delegate of the Secretary,
shall not implement or enforce any provisions of Public Law 111-148 and
Public Law 111-152 (other than subtitle A of title II thereof).
SEC. 4. PREVENTION OF USE OF TAXPAYER FUNDS TO IMPLEMENT OR ENFORCE
OBAMACARE.
No taxpayer funds shall be used for the implementation or
enforcement of Public Law 111-148 and Public Law 111-152 (other than
subtitle A of title II thereof).
