Americans will be getting their refund checks no matter what, according to IRS CEO and Social Security Commissioner Frank Bisignano, who said a potential government shutdown would not impact refunds. When asked whether a possible shutdown would impact Americans' tax refund checks, Bisignano told Fox News' Aishah Hasnie there was "no way." Several Democrats have called on President Donald Trump to fire DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, with House Democrats threatening impeachment proceedings. The White House has stood behind Noem and the president said the DHS secretary was doing a "very good job." Despite the possibility of a government shutdown, the administration has maintained that Americans will receive their tax refunds on time regardless of what happens on Capitol Hill.
