The DIRECT Act would rescind unused funds provided for Internal Revenue Service enforcement activities. It would redirect an equal amount to U.S. Customs and Border Protection for salaries and expenses of new agents and officers hired to secure the southern border.
The bill would shift available federal funding from IRS enforcement to hiring and supporting border agents and officers. It does not describe direct services or benefits for individuals.
The bill does not state a dollar amount. It would make funding available to Customs and Border Protection equal to the unused IRS enforcement funds rescinded.
