Missing Kids Returned by New Tax Law?
It's strange to think about, but many parents who violate court orders and abduct their children continue to pay federal taxes while hiding out -- living on the run...or establishing a new life elsewhere. Some even claim their children as dependents on their returns. Yet the IRS can't share that information with local law enforcement. Minnesota Senator Amy Klobuchar's bill would change that.
"We might not think of these cases in the same light as stranger abductions, but they are just as scary for the family members left behind left looking for missing child," said Klobuchar.

There are 200,000 plus family abductions reported every year in the U.S. This measure has the potential to bring a lot of children home to their rightful parent or guardian.
