A resolution expressing the sense of the Senate that President Trump's lawsuit against the Internal Revenue Service, the resulting settlement from that lawsuit, the purported "Anti-Weaponization Fund", and the purported grant of immunity from tax investigations to the plaintiffs in President Trump's lawsuit, should be rejected, equal protection arguments by others with similar claims should be forestalled, and this settlement should not serve as a precedent and should never be repeated.

This resolution states the opinion of the Senate on a lawsuit that President Trump, two of his sons, and the Trump Organization filed against the IRS and the Treasury Department over a contractor's disclosure of tax information. It states that the lawsuit, the settlement creating an "Anti-Weaponization Fund" of about $1.8 billion, and an addendum granting the plaintiffs immunity from IRS investigations should be rejected. It also states that others affected by the same disclosure should not be able to use equal protection arguments to claim the same immunity, and that the settlement should not be used as a precedent. The resolution expresses a position and does not change any law.
