Abolish the IRS or Make Misuse of Tax Funds Treason

Recent signers:

The Issue

U.S. Congress

We, the American people, have had enough. In 2024, the federal government collected $4.92 trillion in revenue, including $2.43 trillion taken directly from our paychecks via income taxes enforced by the IRS. Far too often, these funds—our money—are siphoned off for foreign wars with no clear benefit to us, funneled into dubious overseas projects, or pocketed as kickbacks by corrupt officials. Meanwhile, our infrastructure rots, veterans sleep on the streets, and families drown in debt.

This is a betrayal of the highest order, and it must end. We demand Congress act immediately: Either abolish the IRS and scrap the income tax system entirely, liberating Americans from its oppressive weight, OR pass a law declaring it a treasonous crime for any government official to misuse our tax dollars on foreign affairs unrelated to national defense or on corrupt kickbacks—with the death penalty as a potential punishment for those found guilty.

We call on Congress to:

1. Option A: Abolish the IRS and repeal the federal income tax, replacing it with a fair, transparent revenue system that honors our rights.

2. Option B: Enact legislation defining misuse of income tax funds—for non-defensive foreign spending or personal enrichment—as treason, punishable by severe penalties, up to and including death, to ensure accountability.

3. Launch public investigations into current tax spending to root out and punish any abuse.

Our tax dollars are ours, not a slush fund for foreign governments or crooked politicians. Sign this petition to demand Congress choose: Abolish the IRS or make its misuse a capital offense. We will not stand for theft disguised as governance.
