From December 9, 2021 post.

Congressmen Brad Wenstrup (R-Ohio) and Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) joined by House Ways & Means Committee Ranking Member Kevin Brady (R-Texas) and 96 of their colleagues, wrote to Internal Revenue Service Commissioner Charles Rettig to request information regarding ongoing tax filing backlogs at the IRS and IRS preparedness for the upcoming 2022 tax filing season.

“This massive backlog is causing significant and unnecessary burdens for families and small businesses who can’t get answers from the IRS about why their returns have not been processed. The IRS is in danger of falling into a vicious backlog cycle that will harm millions of taxpayers," the members wrote. "On December 1, 2021, the IRS launched its “Get Ready for Taxes” campaign for the 2022 tax season. While we appreciate the IRS’s outreach to encourage taxpayer preparedness, we have serious doubts about the IRS’s own preparedness for the new season."
