Trump Nominates Billy Long as IRS Commissioner

President-elect Donald Trump has appointed former Missouri Rep. Billy Long as the new IRS Commissioner, replacing Danny Werfel. Long, who has experience in real estate and as an auctioneer, served in Congress from 2011 to 2023 and has been a tax adviser since leaving office. Trump's decision aligns with Republican efforts to reduce IRS funding and initiatives from the Inflation Reduction Act. This move is part of a broader reshuffle of key positions as Trump prepares for his administration.
