### Comment:
No u don’t know that. The irs can only call a limited amount of ppl. They r understaffed and it’s unlikely they will work for too long without pay. It’s very questionable if “tax returns” are essential and the courts may block it

### REPLY:
Actually, [I do.](https://www.npr.org/2019/01/15/685724017/irs-recalling-46-000-workers-to-handle-tax-returns-despite-partial-shutdown). You don't have to take my word or this specific article for it, just google just shutdown and tax returns, every article is the same.
