IRS CEO says over 94% of middle-class Americans will see tax relief

The first CEO of the Internal Revenue Service is reinforcing signals from the Trump administration that Americans could see the "biggest tax refund ever" in the new year.

"We should expect exactly what the president said, as always happens," Frank Bisignano – also the commissioner at the Social Security Administration – said on "Mornings with Maria" Tuesday.

"And the great leadership of the Treasury secretary has positioned us to be able to deliver in a whole bunch of ways for America."

Bisignano confirmed that major tax refunds are expected in 2026, echoing President Donald Trump’s end-of-year address last week in which he predicted "the largest tax refund season of all time" next spring and said many families could save between $11,000 and $20,000 a year.

"You're going to look at probably 94%—plus of middle-class Americans getting a boost, your tax rates coming down and getting the benefit going forward," the IRS CEO said.

"You'll see all our Social Security recipients getting up to a $6,000 benefit as [Trump] committed to the benefits of Social Security not being taxed," he continued. "It will be the biggest refunds that we've ever seen, and it's all because of the president's leadership and the Treasury secretary’s under ‘One [Big] Beautiful Bill,’ which is unparalleled."

Bisignano also noted that the newly dubbed "Trump accounts" — a sweeping savings initiative for children — will begin accepting contributions on July 4, 2026.

"It's one of the most amazing pieces of tax work ever done. And if you think about it, $1,000 today will be worth $500,000 at age 60," Bisignano said.

The comments come as Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett both told FOX Business that the administration expects larger refunds and higher take-home pay next year...

Thank you for referencing that article Navy Patriot.

IRS CEO says over 94% of middle-class Americans will see tax relieft


In order to preserve Trump's legacy, Trump needs to lead the new Trump-supporting Congress that patriots give him in 2026 to successfully propose a new amendment to the Constitution to the states that repeals the 16th Amendment, direct taxes.

The 17th Amendment, popular vote for federal senators, needs to disappear too.

We'll call the repeal amendment Trump's Boston Tea Party II Amendment.

But will they “see” or “feel” it before the midterms? I hope so, or the 2026 tax year will be the last of it.

Ah yes, its’ the old “up to” trick that advertisers love. Some will get nothing at all depending on age and other income.

The $6000 is a deduction from your income, not the actual tax, so the actual amount depends on your income.

Might be a problem if you’re only providing relief to only those who pay taxes. What about the other 30%?

Given the top 1% pay 40.4% of all taxes, the top 5% pay 61%, and the top 10% pay 76% of all taxes this is meaningless socialist claptrap.

A third of of my money is taken every year to go get handed to others.

Please tell me why I have to work four months for free.

“all our Social Security recipients getting up to a $6,000 benefit”

“All”. “Up to” $6,000. Is every recipient getting a benefit? Are all recipients getting the same amount?

“over 94% of middle-class Americans will see tax relief,”

Why not 100% OF all Americans?

Correct. The wording of the article is very misleading.

“Why not 100% OF all Americans?”

There are around 170,000,000 Americans who do not work, for various reasons. What exactly do you think they are owed?

About 50% of Americans pay no tax or are even net takers from other taxpayers.

How much more of other people’s money should they get?

Seriously, our tax system is beyond broken. The fact that 1% pay half the taxes should make all Americans sick at the unfairness, regardless of whether they are in that bracket or not.

Of course, no politician will dare say that.

They are owed the same percentage as those who do work, of COURSE. That would be 0% of $0 — so they are owed nothing — of COURSE.
