The Assembly Resolution condemns the federal government's recent actions that compromise the privacy of taxpayer information by allowing the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to share private data with the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for immigration enforcement purposes. This resolution highlights the importance of taxpayer confidentiality, as established by federal law, and expresses concern that such data-sharing could deter immigrants from filing taxes, potentially leading to administrative errors and wrongful deportations. The resolution also notes the significant contributions of the immigrant community to state and local taxes, emphasizing the negative impact this policy could have on tax compliance.

In response to the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) executed on April 7, 2025, between the federal Department of the Treasury and the Department of Homeland Security, the resolution demands an immediate reversal of this policy. It calls for the federal government to reaffirm its commitment to protecting taxpayer privacy and maintaining the integrity of the voluntary tax system, while also urging that the IRS be kept out of immigration enforcement matters. The resolution will be transmitted to key federal officials, including the President, Vice President, and members of Congress, to advocate for these changes.
