\nbiden is also proposing an increase to the irs budget along with a set of tax compliance measures. the measures aim to increase tax revenue by closing the \u201ctax gap\u201d \u2013 the difference between taxes owed and taxes actually paid. the u.s. treasury estimates there was $584 billion in that gap in 2019, and it could add up to a total of $7 trillion over the course of the next decade.<\/p>\n\n
